A common demonstration in chemistry courses involves adding a tiny speck of manganese(IV) oxide to a concentrated hydro- gen peroxide (H₂O₂) solution. Hydrogen peroxide decomposes quite spectacularly under these conditions to produce oxygen gas and steam (water vapor). Manganese(IV) oxide is a catalyst for the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide and is not consumed in the reaction. Write the balanced equation for the decomposition reaction of hydrogen peroxide. 92. Iron oxide ores, commonly a mixture of FeO and Fe,O,, are given the general formula Fe,O,. They yield elemental iron when heated to a very high temperature with either carbon monoxide or elemen- tal hydrogen. Balance the following equations for these processes: Fe,O(s) + H₂(g) Fe 0,(s) + CO(e) Fe(s) + H₂O(e) Fe(s) + CO)
