Problem

H2O2\text{H}_2\text{O}_2 is reduced rapidly by Sn2+\text{Sn}^{2+}, the products being Sn4+\text{Sn}^{4+} and water. H2O2\text{H}_2\text{O}_2 decomposes slowly at room temperature to yield O2\text{O}_2 and water. Calculate the volume of O2\text{O}_2 produced at 20∘C20^\circ\text{C} and 1.0 atm when 200 g of 10% by mass H2O2\text{H}_2\text{O}_2 in water is treated with 100 millilitre of 2.0 M\text{M} Sn2+\text{Sn}^{2+} and then the mixture is allowed to stand until no further reaction occurs.
