2H2O2 <-> H2O + O2
the oxidation number of each O in H2O2 is -1
the oxidation number in H2O is -2
the oxidation number in O2 is zero.
The average oxidation number of oxygen atoms on both sides of the equation. is the same. So overall the net change to oxygen is zero one is reduced two are oxidised.
Looked at from the viewpoint of the oxygen atoms in O2 they started off with oxidation number of -1 and have ended up with 0, so they have been oxidised. (oxidation is loss of electrons, and therefore an increase in oxidation number.)
What else can I help you with?
What are the reactants and the products in the following 2H2O2 2H2O plus O2?
The reactant is hydrogen peroxide (2H2O2), which decomposes into water (2H2O) and oxygen gas (O2) as the products in this decomposition reaction.
What is the Equation for water plus oxygen?
The equation for the reaction between water (H2O) and oxygen (O2) is 2H2O + O2 -> 2H2O2, which produces hydrogen peroxide.
Liver plus hydrogen peroxide equals what and what?
When Hydrogen Peroxide (2H2O2) is combined with a small piece of liver, the hydrogen peroxide decomposes. This is because the small piece of liver acts as a catalyst, or the cause, of the decomposition of the Hydrogen Peroxide.The balanced equation is thus:2H2O2 (Hydrogen Peroxide) ---------> 2H2O + O2
What type of reaction is 2H2O 2H2 plus O2?
