(A) HOCL+H_2O_2 H_3O^++Cl^-+O_2 (B) I_2+H_2O_2+2OH^- 2I^-+2H_2O+O_2 Choose the correct option

Correct answer: C. (c) When H_2O_2acts a reducing agent it liberates the O_2. H_2O_2 ⇌2H^++O_2+2e^-

JEE · NEET Previous Year Question

$(A) HOCL + H_{2} O_{2} \to H_{3} O^{+} + C l^{-} + O_{2} (B) I_{2} + H_{2} O_{2} + 2 O H^{-} \to 2 I^{-} + 2 H_{2} O + O_{2} Choose the correct option$

Topic: JEE PYQ

Answer: C. Full step-by-step solution below.

A $H_{2} O_{2} act as oxidizing and reducing agent respectively in equations (A) and (B)$
B $H_{2} O_{2} act as oxidizing agent in equations (A) and (B).$
C $H_{2} O_{2} act as reducing agent in equations (A) and (B).$
D $H_{2} O_{2} act as reducing and oxidizing agent respectively in equations (A) and (B).$

Correct answer: C

(c) When H_{2} O_{2} acts a reducing agent it liberates the O_{2} . H_{2} O_{2} ⇌ 2 H^{+} + O_{2} + 2 e^{-}
