Question

Barium burns in excess of oxygen forming
a) BaO b) Ba2O2 c)BaO2 d) none of these.
please provide explaination​

Answer 1

Answer:

Strontium and barium will also react with oxygen to form strontium or barium peroxide. Strontium forms this if it is heated in oxygen under high pressures, but barium forms barium peroxide just on normal heating in oxygen. Mixtures of barium oxide and barium peroxide will be produced.

$\small\underline\mathcal\pink{ANSWER:-}$

c)BaO2

Strontium and barium will also react with oxygen to form strontium or barium peroxide. Strontium forms this if it is heated in oxygen under high pressures, but barium forms barium peroxide just on normal heating in oxygen. Mixtures of barium oxide and barium peroxide will be produced.

Ba(s)+O2(s)→BaO2(s)
