Answer: 0.72 litres of water is wasted in one day.

Explanation:

First you need to find out how many minutes are in a day. Do this by multiplying the number of minutes in an hour (60) by the number of hours in a day (24). 24 x 60 = 1440. If the faucet is dripping at 5 drops per minute, then multiply 5 by the number of minutes in a day (1440) to see how many drops drip in one day. 5 x 1440 = 7200. Now we need to figure out how many mL fo water that is. if 10 drops is 1 mL, then we need to divide the total number of drops (7200) by 10. 7200 divided by 10 is 720. That means 720 mL of water is dripping per day. Finally, we must convert mL to litres. There are 1000 mL in one litre, so divide 720 by 1000. The final answer is 0.72

hydrogen decomposes quickly when exposed to light. the reaction for decomposing hydrogen peroxide is:
Svet_ta [14]

The decomposition reaction for hydrogen peroxide is given below:

                                     2H_{2} O_{2} → 2H_{2} O + O_{2}

This is a decomposition reaction.

Reactions in which a reactant breaks into two or more products are known as Decomposition reactions.

                                          AB → A + B

here, AB represents the reactant that begins the reaction, and A and B represent the products of the reaction

The decomposition reaction of decomposing hydrogen peroxide is exothermic. When the hydrogen peroxide undergoes a decomposition reaction, heat is also released along with water and oxygen.

Hence the  reaction for decomposing hydrogen peroxide is :

         2H_{2} O_{2} → 2H_{2} O + O_{2}
