The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding the synthesis of hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂), we will analyze each option provided and determine whether H₂O₂ can be synthesized from them. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Option A: Addition of ice-cold H₂SO₄ on BaO₂** - When barium oxide (BaO₂) reacts with ice-cold sulfuric acid (H₂SO₄), it produces barium sulfate (BaSO₄) as a precipitate and hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂). - **Conclusion**: H₂O₂ can be synthesized from this reaction. 2. **Option B: Addition of ice-cold H₂SO₄ on PbO₂** - When lead oxide (PbO₂) reacts with ice-cold sulfuric acid (H₂SO₄), it produces lead sulfate (PbSO₄) as a precipitate along with water (H₂O) and oxygen (O₂), but not hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂). - **Conclusion**: H₂O₂ cannot be synthesized from this reaction. 3. **Option C: Aerial oxidation of 2-ethyl anthraquinone** - The aerial oxidation of 2-ethyl anthraquinone leads to the production of hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂). - **Conclusion**: H₂O₂ can be synthesized from this reaction. 4. **Option D: Electrolysis of NH₄H₂SO₄ at high current density** - The electrolysis of ammonium sulfate (NH₄H₂SO₄) at high current density can also produce hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂). - **Conclusion**: H₂O₂ can be synthesized from this reaction. ### Final Answer: Based on the analysis, the option that does not lead to the synthesis of hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) is **Option B: Addition of ice-cold H₂SO₄ on PbO₂**. ---
