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

Answers (1)

2H_{2}(g)+O_{2}(g)\rightarrow 2H_{2}O(l)

The reaction between H2 and O2 to form water does not take place at room temperature because the activation energy of the reaction is very high.
