  1. A \(0.2 \mathrm{~N} \mathrm{NaOH}\)
  2. B \(50 \% \mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{SO}_4\)
  3. C \(2 \% \mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{SO}_4\)
  4. D \(5 \% \mathrm{NaCl}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(50 \% \mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{SO}_4\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}_2\) is obtained by the electrolysis of a cold \(50 \%\) solution of \(\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{SO}_4\) \[ \mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{SO}_4 \rightleftharpoons \mathrm{H}^{+}+\mathrm{HSO}_4^{-} \] The electrolysis of \(\mathrm{HSO}_4^{-}\)ion gives…
