Answers

Answered by Dheeraj127

Answer:

Explanation:

A peroxide is a compound containing an oxygen–oxygen single bond or the peroxide anion, O 2 2− .

The O−O group is called the peroxide group or peroxo group. In contrast to oxide ions, the oxygen atoms in the peroxide ion have an oxidation state of −1.

The simplest stable peroxide is hydrogen peroxide ( H2O2 )

Superoxides

Superoxides are compounds in which the oxidation number of oxygen is −½.

E.g. KO2 , RbO2 , CsO , NaO2
