write balanced chemical equation..plz i have consulted my textbook it says copper and water but i do remember that my teacher told me that whenever atomic hydrogen reacts with oxygen gas hydrogen peroxide is produced rather than water....i m confused that why my textbook is saying water and not hydrogen peroxide:/ plz help me out!

Firstly it is not reacting with oxygen gas .. it is reacting with chemically combined oxygen, so water isc formed and your textbook is right!
atomic
CuO + 2H ---> Cu + H2O
usual form
CuO + H2 ---> Cu + H2O
atomic
CuO + 2H ---> Cu + H2O
usual form
CuO + H2 ---> Cu + H2O
