In the reaction between `I_2` and `H_2O_2` in alkaline medium, what is the oxidant and reductant?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`I_2 + H_2O_2 + 2OH^(-) to 2I^(-) + 2H_2O + O_2`
Hydrogen peroxide is oxidised to oxygen and iodine is reduced to iodide ion. Thus `H_2O_2` is reductant and `l_2` is oxidant

Which reaction represents oxidising nature of H_2O_2 in acid medium

H_(2)O_(2) acts both as oxidant and reductant. H_(2)O and O_(2) are products when H_(2)O_(2) acts as oxidant and reductant respectively. The strength of H_(2)O_(2) is expressed in terms of molarity, normality, % strength and volume strength. H_(2)O_(2) decomposes as H_(2)O_(2)rarrH_(2)+1//2O_(2)(g) i.e., one mole O_(2) is released from 2 mole H_(2)O_(2) .x. .volume. strength of H_(2)O_(2) means 1 volume (mL or litre) of H_(2)O_(2) sample released x volume (mL or litre) O_(2) gas at NTP on its decomposition. Hence molarity = x//11.2 moles per litre, i.e., normality of H_(2)O_(2)=x//5.6 Thus volume strength, i.e., x=5.6xx Normality. Weigth of H_(2)O_(2) (in gm) present in 100 mL H_(2)O_(2) solution is called percentage strength of H_(2)O_(2) How much volume of H_(2)O_(2) solution of 22.4 .vol. strength is required to oxidise 6.3 gm oxalic acid

Oxidation state of oxygen in H_2O_2 is

Passage - VI : Industrially sulphuric acid is produced by the following steps: Stage I : S+O_(2) overset(Delta)to SO_(2) Stage II : 2SO_(2) +O_(2) overset(V_(2)O_(5))to 2SO_(3) Stage III : SO_(3)+H_(2)O to H_(2)SO_(4) Since the reaction between SO_(3) and H_(2)O is violent, SO_(3) is passed into 98% H_(2)SO_(4) to produce oleum (H_(2)S_(2)O_(7)) Ionically the reaction between H_(2)SO_(4) & Mg may be presented as, Mg+2H_(3)O^(+) to Mg^(2+)+H_(2) uarr +2H_(2)O Therefore, in the given reaction -

In the reaction, H_(2)S+H_(2)O_(2) to S+2H_(2)O:
