It seems like there might be a mistake in your work. Let's break down the balanced chemical equation and compare it to your answer.
The given balanced chemical equation is:
H2O2 + MnO2 → MnO2 + H2O
To check if your work is correct, we need to ensure that both sides of the equation have the same number and types of atoms.
On the left-hand side (reactant side), we have:
- 2 hydrogen atoms (from H2O2)
- 2 oxygen atoms (from H2O2)
- 1 manganese atom (from MnO2)
On the right-hand side (product side), we have:
- 1 manganese atom (from MnO2)
- 2 oxygen atoms (from MnO2)
- 2 hydrogen atoms (from H2O)
Comparing both sides, we can see that the left-hand side has 2 hydrogen atoms, while the right-hand side only has 1. Therefore, your work does not seem to be correct.
The correct balanced chemical equation for the given reaction is:
2 H2O2 + MnO2 → MnO2 + 2 H2O
