ANSWER:Solution 112 AQPStep-1a Here we have to write a balanced equation for the combustion of H2O2 which produces water and oxygen.The balanced chemical equation is given below,2 H2O2 O2 + 2 H2OStep-2b.Here we have to calculate how many moles of peroxide are needed to produce 3.00 moles of water.In this reaction it has been given that 2 moles of water has formed from 2 moles of H2O2, thus we can use the conversion factor, The number of moles of peroxide needed can be calculated as,3.00 moles of H2O = 3 moles of H2
