Which one of the following reactions represents the oxidising property of \(\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}_2\) ?

  1. A \(\begin{aligned} & 2 \mathrm{KMnO}_4+3 \mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{SO}_4+5 \mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}_2 \longrightarrow & \mathrm{K}_2 \mathrm{SO}_4+2 \mathrm{MnSO}_4+8 \mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}+5 \mathrm{O}_2\end{aligned}\)
  2. B \(\begin{aligned} & 2 \mathrm{~K}_3\left[\mathrm{Fe}(\mathrm{CN})_6\right]+2 \mathrm{KOH}+\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}_2 \longrightarrow & 2 \mathrm{~K}_4\left[\mathrm{Fe}(\mathrm{CN})_6\right]+2 \mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}+\mathrm{O}_2\end{aligned}\)
  3. C \(\mathrm{PbO}_2+\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}_2 \longrightarrow \mathrm{PbO}+\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}+\mathrm{O}_2\)
  4. D \(2 \mathrm{KI}+\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{SO}_4+\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}_2 \underset{\mathrm{K}_2 \mathrm{SO}_4}{\longrightarrow}+\mathrm{I}_2+2 \mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}\)

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(2 \mathrm{KI}+\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{SO}_4+\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}_2 \underset{\mathrm{K}_2 \mathrm{SO}_4}{\longrightarrow}+\mathrm{I}_2+2 \mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

The reaction in which \(\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}_2\) is reduced while the other reactant is oxidised, represents the oxidising property of \(\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}_2\). \(\begin{aligned} & \text { (oxidising } \\ & \text { agent) } \\ & \text { oxidation } \\ & \end{aligned}\)
