Ammonia and Hydrogen Peroxide Mixing Reactions

On the Reaction of Mixing Ammonia and Hydrogen Peroxide
When ammonia is mixed with hydrogen peroxide, its change is also strange, and scholars must study the reason. Ammonia, a alkali, has a special taste; hydrogen peroxide, a strong oxidizing agent. When the two meet, a chemical reaction occurs.

Ammonia ($NH_3 $) and hydrogen peroxide ($H_2O_2 $) may change slightly at the beginning of mixing. In hydrogen peroxide, oxygen is -1 valent, and its properties are active. It often wants to obtain electrons and reduce its valence state, which is strongly oxidizing. Nitrogen in ammonia is -3, which may increase the price. When the two meet, a redox reaction occurs.

Its common reaction may generate nitrogen, water and other products. The nitrogen element of ammonia is oxidized, and the oxygen element of hydrogen peroxide is reduced. For example, the reaction formula: $2NH_3 + 3H_2O_2\ longrightarrow N_2 + 6H_2O $. In this reaction, nitrogen increases from -3 to 0, oxygen decreases from -1 to -2, and new substances are formed between electron transfer.

The actual reaction may vary depending on the concentration, temperature, and catalytic conditions of the two. If the concentration is high, the reaction may be more intense, the heat produced will increase suddenly, and the gas will escape quickly. When the temperature rises, the reaction rate will be accelerated, and the molecules will collide frequently, which will promote the reaction to proceed in the direction of the product.

And during the reaction, intermediate products may be formed. If an intermediate containing nitrogen oxides is formed, its stability is poor, and it decomposes immediately, eventually forming a stable product. Such complex changes are explained by chemical principles and experimental observations.

To know the details of this mixed reaction, experiments are necessary. In the laboratory, with precise equipment, control the dosage, temperature, environment, observe the reaction phenomenon, and measure the composition of the product, the true meaning can be obtained. The study of this reaction is of great significance in the chemical industry, scientific research, and other fields, which can inspire people and promote the progress of science.
