When molecular hydrogen (H2) and oxygen (O2) are combined and allowed to react together, energy is released and the molecules of hydrogen and oxygen can combine to form either water or hydrogen peroxide. ... For both of the reactions shown, the hydrogen molecules are oxidized and the oxygen atoms are reduced.
