The reaction between H(2(g)) and O(2(g))...

The reaction between `H_(2(g))` and `O_(2(g))` is highly feasible yet allowing the gases to satnd at room temperature in the same vessel does not lead to the formation of water .Explain.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

This is because activation energy for the reaction is very high at room temperatue .So due to lack of energy bonds of `H_(2)` and `O_(2)` will bot break and inspite of collision product will not form.
