JEE PYQ: Redox Reactions Question 5
Question 5 - 2021 (24 Feb Shift 1)
(A) HOCl + H₂O₂ → H₃O⁺ + Cl⁻ + O₂ (B) I₂ + H₂O₂ + 2OH⁻ → 2I⁻ + 2H₂O + O₂
(1). (H₂O₂ acts as oxidizing and reducing agent respectively in (A) and (B))
(2). (H₂O₂ acts as oxidizing agent in both (A) and (B))
(3). (H₂O₂ acts as reducing agent in both (A) and (B))
(4). (H₂O₂ acts as reducing and oxidizing agent respectively in (A) and (B))
Show Answer
Answer: (3)
Solution
In both reactions, H₂O₂ is oxidized to O₂, acting as a reducing agent.
