Well, its a very simple process actually. Here is how it works;

When molecular hydrogen, also known as H2, and oxygen, also known as O2, are combined and are able to react together, energy is released and the molecules of the hydrogen and the oxygen. These can combine to form either water or hydrogen peroxide, depending on how the chemicals mix.

What is meant by "elastic collisions"?

Leokris [45]

Elastic collisions meant that there will be no change in the total momentum of the system and surrounding after collision.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Collision is the process where two or more bodies hit each other. So when they hit each other, transfer of energy will be occurring between them. In other words, the momentum can be changed after the collision. There are two kinds of collision.

elastic collision
inelastic collision

The elastic collision are those which will not undergo any change in the total momentum after collision. This means that the sum of momentum of the objects before collision will be equal to the sum of momentum of the objects after collision. Thus, there will be no change in the total momentum of the object after collision in case of elastic collision.
