Which one of the following compounds is a peroxide?

  1. KO2
  2. BaO2
  3. MnO2
  4. NO2

Answer

(2) BaO2

Solution

A peroxide contains the peroxide ion O22- (O–O bond, O.N. of O = −1).

BaO2 = Ba2+O22- ⇒ peroxide

KO2 = K+O2- ⇒ superoxide

MnO2 (Mn = +4) and NO2 (N = +4) are dioxides with O = −2 (no O–O bond).
