MgCl_(2).6H_(2)O cannot be dehydrated on strong heating .Why?

Pure H_(2)O_(2) is not very stable and decomposes in the presence of light or on standing or heating overset((-1))(H_(2)O_(2l))+overset((2-)) (H_(2)O_((l)))+overset((0))(O_(2(g))) The oxidation state of oxygen in H_(2)O_(2) is 1 it is oxidistion state of zero in O_(2) and is reduced to an oxidation state of -2 in H_(2)O . Thus, this decomposition is an example of auto oxidation reduction reaction or disproportionation reaction. Pure H_(2)O is
