The reaction represented by H₂O → H₂(g) + O₂(g) is a decomposition reaction. In this reaction, water (H₂O) is broken down into its constituent elements, hydrogen gas (H₂) and oxygen gas (O₂), typically through the process of electrolysis or thermolysis. Decomposition reactions involve the separation of a compound into simpler substances.

What type of chemical reaction is 2H2O2I - 2H2OI O2g?

Both H2O2I and H2OI O2 are unknown compounds, chemically speaking even the first looks rather impossible to me. However HO2I and HOI (with 1 i.s.o. 2 H atoms) are real compounds, when correctly written as HIO2 and HIO they are commonly known as Iodic and hypo-Iodic acid. Doing so, the reaction 2 HIO2 --> 2 HIO + O2(g) is called an 'auto-redox decomposition' or an 'internal oxidation-reduction' reaction.


What reaction is 2h2g o2g --- 2h2og?

The reaction ( 2 \text{H}_2(g) + \text{O}_2(g) \rightarrow 2 \text{H}_2\text{O}(g) ) represents the combustion of hydrogen gas in the presence of oxygen gas to produce water vapor. This is an exothermic reaction, meaning it releases energy, typically in the form of heat and light. It is also a redox reaction, where hydrogen is oxidized and oxygen is reduced.

What is described in the following equation 2h2g plus o2g 2h20i?

The equation (2 \text{H}_2\text{g} + \text{O}_2\text{g} \rightarrow 2 \text{H}2\text{O}{\text{i}}) describes the chemical reaction of hydrogen gas ((H_2)) reacting with oxygen gas ((O_2)) to form liquid water ((H_2O)). This is a combustion reaction where two molecules of hydrogen gas combine with one molecule of oxygen gas to produce two molecules of water. The reaction is exothermic, releasing energy in the form of heat.


What are the coefficients for the following reaction when it is properly balanced O2 plus CH4 --- CO2 plus H2O?

Well Carbon monoxide oxygen most likely looks like this CO O2 and Carbon Dioxide is CO2 so if you put a 2 in front of CO and CO2 then your equation becomes balanced and looks like this 2CO + O2 --> 2CO2 Each side has 2 carbon and 4 oxygen.


What is the structural formula of enzyme?

Enzymes are substances that increase the speed of a chemical reaction. 1. A substrate attaches to an enzyms's active site. 2. The enzyme reduces the activation energy of the reaction. 3. The enzyme is not changes by this reaction. That is how a biology book explains it. I hope that helps you.
