BaO2 is a peroxide but PbO2 is not a peroxide why? |
|
Answer» Metallic oxides which on treatment with dilute acids produce hydrogen peroxide are called peroxides. All peroxides contain a peroxide ion (O2)2- having the structure [– O – O –]. PbO2 does not contain a peroxide ion n (O2)2- and it can not be called as peroxides. |
