Answer 1

oxidising nature.
hope it help you

Answer 2

Answer:

The correct answer is option a.

Explanation:

Oxidizing agents are those chemical compounds which oxidizes other compounds and reduce it self.

Reducing agents are those chemical compounds which reduces other compounds and oxidize it self.

$H_2S+H_2O_2\rightarrow S+2H_2O$

In the above reaction hydrogen peroxide is acting as a oxidizing reagent as it is oxidizing sulfide ion into sulfur atom.

During oxidation the oxidation state of sulfur was -2 before reaction which oxidized to 0 due to action of hydrogen peroxide.

$S^{2-}\rightarrow S+ 2e^-$
