  2. Hydrogen polyoxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrogen_polyoxide

    Pentaoxidane (H 2 O 5) is a byproduct of trioxidane production [2] and has also been synthesized by reaction among peroxy radicals at low temperature. [ 1 ] Hydrogen polyoxides containing up to 10 oxygen atoms have been studied theoretically, but those containing more than five oxygens are expected to be extremely unstable.

  3. Barium peroxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barium_peroxide

    Barium peroxide arises by the reversible reaction of O 2 with barium oxide. The peroxide forms around 500 °C and oxygen is released above 820 °C. [1] 2 BaO + O 22 BaO 2. This reaction is the basis for the now-obsolete Brin process for separating oxygen from the atmosphere. Other oxides, e.g. Na 2 O and SrO, behave similarly. [4]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_splitting

    For example, at 2,200 °C (2,470 K; 3,990 °F) about three percent of all H 2 O are dissociated into various combinations of hydrogen and oxygen atoms, mostly H, H 2, O, O 2, and OH. Other reaction products like H 2 O 2 or HO 2 remain minor. At the very high temperature of 3,000 °C (3,270 K; 5,430 °F) more than half of the water molecules are ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heterogeneous_Water_Oxidation

    Oxidation 2H 2 O → 4H + + 4e − + O 2 E° = +1.23 V vs. NHE Reduction 4H + + 4e − → 2H 2 E° = 0.00 V vs. NHE Overall 2H 2 O → 2H 2 + O 2 E°cell = +1.23 V; ΔG = 475 kJ/mol . Water splitting can be done at higher pH values as well however the standard potentials will vary according to the Nernst equation and therefore shift by -59 mV ...

  6. Oxygen reduction reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxygen_reduction_reaction

    The direct reaction of O 2 with fuel is precluded by the oxygen reduction reaction, which produces water and adenosine triphosphate. Cytochrome c oxidase affects the oxygen reduction reaction by binding O 2 in a heme–Cu complex. In laccase, O 2 is engaged and reduced by a four-copper aggregate.

  7. Chemical equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_equation

    A chemical equation is the symbolic representation of a chemical reaction in the form of symbols and chemical formulas.The reactant entities are given on the left-hand side and the product entities are on the right-hand side with a plus sign between the entities in both the reactants and the products, and an arrow that points towards the products to show the direction of the reaction. [1]

  8. Hydrogen peroxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrogen_peroxide

    Hydrogen peroxide is a chemical compound with the formula H 2 O 2.In its pure form, it is a very pale blue [5] liquid that is slightly more viscous than water.It is used as an oxidizer, bleaching agent, and antiseptic, usually as a dilute solution (3%–6% by weight) in water for consumer use and in higher concentrations for industrial use.

  9. Hydration reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydration_reaction

    The general chemical equation for the hydration of alkenes is the following: RRC=CH 2 + H 2 O → RRC(OH)-CH 3. A hydroxyl group (OH −) attaches to one carbon of the double bond, and a proton (H +) adds to the other. The reaction is highly exothermic. In the first step, the alkene acts as a nucleophile and attacks the proton, following ...
