Hydrogen Peroxide Is a Good Oxidizing Agent Because It Is \rightarrow

Question 50

Multiple Choice

Hydrogen peroxide is a good oxidizing agent because it is a good source of molecular oxygen: 2 H2O2(aq) \rightarrow 2 H2O(l) + O2(g) . Calculate Δ\Delta Hrxn° for this reaction from the enthalpies of the following reactions.
2 H2(g) + O2(g) \rightarrow 2 H2O(l)   Δ\Delta Hrxn° = -571.66 kJ/molrxn
H2(g) + O2(g) \rightarrow H2O2(aq)   Δ\Delta Hrxn° = -187.8 kJ/molrxn


A) -759.5 kJ/molrxn
B) -383.9 kJ/molrxn
C) -196.0 kJ/molrxn
D) -98.0 kJ/molrxn
E) 196.0 kJ/molrxn
