The answer is: hydrogen peroxide, H2O2.
H₂O₂(hydrogen peroxide) is pale blue, clear, inorganic liquid.
It is liquid because hydrogen bonds between molecules.
Hydrogen bond is an electrostatic attraction between two polar groups that occurs when a hydrogen atom (H), covalently bound to a highly electronegative atom such as flourine (F), oxygen (O) and nitrogen (N) atoms.
Because of hydrogen bonds, hydrogen peroxide has higher melting and boiling temperatures than other molecules.
No because they can be seperated differently
When oxygen is found is peroxide, it has an oxidation number of -1.
The chemical formula of hydrogen peroxide is H2O2. We know that hydrogen always has +1 oxidation state until it forms metal hydrides. So in H2O2, the oxidation state ofhydrogen is +1.
Now, let oxidation state of oxygen be x. So,
2 * (+1) + 2*x = 0
2 + 2x = 0
2x = -2
x = -2 / 2
x = -1
Hence, the oxidation number of oxygen in peroxides is -1
Answer:
C8H20P4F8
Explanation:
Molecular formula is based off a ratio of the molecular formula's molar mass divided by the empirical formula's molar mass.
The molar mass of the empirical formula C2H5PF2 is 98.02g. We find this by adding the molar masses of all elements in the formula, multiplied by their subscripts.
2(12.01) + 5(1.01) + 30.97 + 2(18.99) = 98.02
We then divide the molecular molar mass by the empirical molar mass.
392.16/98.02 = 4
This tells us that the molecular formula has 4 times the mass of the empirical formula. Because mass comes from the elements in the formula, we multiply all the subscripts by 4 to get the molecular formula.
2x4 = 8
5x4 = 20
1x4 = 4
2x4 = 8
So the molecular formula is C8H20P4F8
