Hydrogen peroxide acts as an oxidizing agent in which reaction?

Question

Team JKExamLibrary · Accepted Answer

In reaction C, H₂O₂ oxidizes PbS (black) to PbSO₄ (white), where oxygen atoms from H₂O₂ are added. H₂O₂ itself is reduced to H₂O. In reaction D, H₂O₂ oxidizes I⁻ to I₂; that is also oxidation. But the most straightforward oxidizing reaction among these is the restoration of old paintings (PbS → PbSO₄). Reaction A: H₂O₂ reduces O₃ (acts as reducing agent). Reaction B: H₂O₂ reduces Ag₂O. H₂O₂ can act as both oxidizing and reducing agent.
