Consider a mixture of 10 billion O₂ molecules and 10 billion H₂ molecules. In what way is this mixture similar to a sample containing 10 billion hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) molecules? In what way is it different?

Respuesta :

The two samples are different from each other in the number of molecules of hydrogen and oxygen.

There are two samples. One of them contains a mixture of 10 billion O2 and 10 billion H2 molecules and the other contain 10 billion H2O molecules.

As we know that,

each hydrogen and oxygen molecules splits into two atoms. So, by calculation we have 20 billion oxygen and similarly 20 billion hydrogen atoms.

In the second sample of hydrogen peroxide, the same number of hydrogen and oxygen atoms are present.

Both the samples are difficult in the way, the first sample contains a total of 20 billion molecules of Hydrogen and oxygen atoms while the second sample contains only 10 billion molecule of oxygen and hydrogen.

Thus, we concluded that the two samples are different from each other in the number of molecules of hydrogen and oxygen.
