Study the following reaction carefully
I. `HOCl+ H_(2)O_(2) to H_(3)O^(+) Cl^(-)+ O_(2)`
II. `PbS+ 4 H_(2) O_(2) to PsSO_(4)+ 4 H_(2)O`
Point out the correct option.

A

`H_(2)O_(2)` acts as oxidising agent in equation (A) and (B)

B

`H_(2)O_(2)` act as oxidising and reducing agent respectively in equation (A) and (B)

C

`H_(2)O_(2)` acts as reducing agent in equation (A) and (B)

D

`H_(2)O_(2)` acts as reducing and oxidising agent respectively in equation (A) and (B)

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

So, `H_(2)O_(2)` is acting as reducing agent in both reactions.
