Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
In basic medium \(\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}_2\) acts as reducing agent.
\(\mathrm{Na}_2 \mathrm{O}_2+2 \mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O} \rightarrow 2 \mathrm{NaOH}+\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}_2\)
\(2 \mathrm{Fe}^{3+}+\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}_2+2 \mathrm{OH}-\rightarrow 2 \mathrm{Fe}^{2+}+2 \mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}\) \(+~\mathrm{O}_2\)
\(\mathrm{Na}_2 \mathrm{O}_2+2 \mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O} \rightarrow 2 \mathrm{NaOH}+\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}_2\)

Properties such as boiling point, freezing point and vapour pressure of a pure solvent change when solute molecules are added to get homogeneous solution. These are called colligative properties. Applications of colligative properties are very useful in day-to-day life. One of its examples is the use of ethylene glycol and water mixture as anti-freezing liquid in the radiator automobiles.

Initially, the two particles, with their center of mass at \(x_0\), are oscillating with amplitude \(a\) and angular frequency \(\omega\).
