H(2)O(2) is stored in...

`H_(2)O_(2)` is stored in

A

iron container after the addition of stabiliser

B

glass container after the addition of stabiliser

C

plastic container after the addition of stabiliser

D

Both (b) and (c )

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

Hydrogen peroxide easily decomposes into water and oxygen and the decomposition speeds up in the presence of metallic impurities or strong bases and on exposure to light. Hence, it is stored in plastic container after addition of stabiliser.
