Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`H_(2)O` are produced during the process
(b)the purpose of writing `O_(2)` two times suggest that `O_(2)` is being obtained from each of the two reactant
the path of reaction (a) and (b) can be determined by using `H_(2)O` or `D_(2)^(O)` in reaction (a) or by using `H_(2)O_(2)^(18)` or `O_(3)^(18)` in reactoin (b)
