What mass of hydrogen peroxide will be present in 2 litres of a 5 molar solution? Calculate the mass of oxygen which will be liberated by the decomposition of 200 ml. of this solution.

Answer»

Molar mass of H2O2 = 34 g mol-1

1L of 5M solution of H2O2 will contain H2O2 = 34 × 5 g

2L of 5M solution of H2O2 will contain H2O2 = 2 × 34 × 5 = 340 g

200 mL of 5M solution will contain H2O2\(\frac{340}{2000}\) × 200 = 34 g

2H2O2 → H2O + O2

68g of H2O2 on decomposition will give O2 = 32g

34g of H2O2 on decomposition will give O2\(\frac{32}{68}\) × 34 = 16g
