The correct Answer is:
To solve the question, we need to identify the applications of a mixture of hydrazine (N₂H₄) and a 58-60% solution of hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Components**: - The mixture consists of hydrazine (N₂H₄) and hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) at a concentration of 58-60%. 2. **Understand the Properties**: - Hydrazine is a powerful reducing agent and is known for its high energy content. - Hydrogen peroxide is a strong oxidizing agent. 3. **Consider the Applications**: - When combined, hydrazine and hydrogen peroxide can undergo exothermic reactions, releasing a significant amount of energy. - This property makes the mixture suitable for use in various applications. 4. **Identify Common Uses**: - The mixture is commonly used as rocket fuel due to its high energy output and efficiency. - It can also be used in other applications such as antiseptics, insecticides, and in the production of finely divided metals, but the most notable application is in rocketry. 5. **Choose the Correct Option**: - Based on the properties and applications discussed, the correct answer to the question is that the mixture is primarily used as rocket fuel. ### Final Answer: The mixture of hydrazine (N₂H₄) and a 58-60% solution of hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) is used as **rocket fuel**. ---
