The starting material for convenient preparation of deuterated hydrogen peroxide \(\left(D_2 O _2\right)\) in laboratory is :
Remember that deuterated compounds are those where hydrogen atoms are replaced by deuterium (heavy hydrogen) isotopes. K2S2O8 is commonly used in the preparation of peroxides.
\(BaO _2\)
\(K _2 S _2 O _8\)
\(BaO\)
Deuterated hydrogen peroxide (\(\text{D}_2\text{O}_2\)) can be conveniently prepared in the laboratory by reacting \(\text{K}_2\text{S}_2\text{O}_8\) with deuterated sulfuric acid (\(\text{D}_2\text{SO}_4\)) in \(\text{D}_2\text{O}\) (heavy water). This method allows for the direct incorporation of deuterium into the hydrogen peroxide molecule.
The shortest wavelength of hydrogen atom in Lyman series is λ. The longest wavelength in Balmer series of He+ is
Hydrogen bonding implies the formation of hydrogen bonds which are an attractive intermolecular force. An example of hydrogen bonding is the bond between the H atom and the O atom in water.
A special type of intermolecular attractive force arises only in the compounds having Hydrogen atoms bonded to an electronegative atom. This force is known as the Hydrogen bond. For instance, in water molecules, the hydrogen atom is bonded to a highly electronegative Oxygen.
Association: The molecules of carboxylic acids exist as dimer because of the hydrogen bonding. The molecular masses of such compounds are found to be double than those calculated from their simple formula.
Dissociation: In aqueous solution, HF dissociates and gives the difluoride ion instead of fluoride ion. This is due to hydrogen bonding in HF. The molecules of HCl, HBr, HI do not form a hydrogen bond. This explains the non-existence of compounds like KHCl2, KHBr2, KHI2.
