Chemistry Question on Redox reactions
In which of the following reactions, there is no change in valency ?
A
4KClO3−>3KClO4+KCl
B
SO2+2H2S−>2H2O+3S
C
BaO2+H2SO4−>BaSO4+H2O2
D
3BaO+O2−>2BaO2
Answer
BaO2+H2SO4−>BaSO4+H2O2
Explanation
Solution
BaO2+H2SO4→BaSO4+H2O2
as we know oxygen in peroxide is hare −1 oxidotion.
SO, BaO2 and H2O2 are peroxide have −1 oxidation in oxygen.
