When peroxide is swallowed, it generates oxygen bubbles in the stomach. Drinking higher concentrations of hydrogen peroxide can be very dangerous because it can cause tissue burns.
Answer:
178.01347 ± 0.00093 g/mol
Explanation:
Answer:
O2(g) was Reduced
Explanation:
It is necessary at this point to restate the working definitions of oxidation and reduction.
Oxidation refers to increase in oxidation number. A chemical specie is oxidized in a chemical reaction if there is a positive increase in its oxidation number from left to right in the reaction.
A chemical specie is said to be reduced when there is a decrease in its oxidation number from left to right in a reaction. Hence reduction refers to a decrease in oxidation number.
Now let us focus on O2(g). Its oxidation number on the left hand side is zero. On the right hand side, its oxidation number decreases to -2. This shows a decrease in oxidation number. From our premises above, we can safely conclude that O2(g) was reduced in the reaction.
It is proved incorrect because atoms can be further divided into protons neutrons electrons and sub atomic particles
