Question

1. interpret a chemical equation of decomposition of hydrogen peroxide h2o2: fill in the blanks in the sentence below the equation. when naming substances use the naming rules that you learned in this class. (1 point) ki 2 h2o2(aq) → o2(g) + 2 h2o(l) hydrogen peroxide in a water solution in the presence of ________________ decomposes producing ______________ ______________ and liquid ________________ an example on how to interpret a chemical equation can be found in the “introduction” part of this handout.

Explanation:

The chemical equation shows hydrogen peroxide ($H_2O_2$) in aqueous solution decomposing in the presence of potassium iodide (KI) catalyst. The products are oxygen gas ($O_2$) and liquid water ($H_2O$).

Answer:

Hydrogen peroxide in a water - solution in the presence of potassium iodide decomposes producing oxygen gas and liquid water.
