Question

H₂O₂ --> 2H⁺ + O₂ + 2e⁻. Which reaction occurs in H₂O₂ in the given reaction? (A) Oxidation (B) Reduction (C) Neutralisation (D) Redox

Answer 1

H₂O₂ --> 2H⁺ + O₂ + 2e⁻.In this reaction H2O2 acts as a reducing agent itself being oxidized.

Oxidation state of O changes from -1 in H2O2 to 0 in O2. Because it is being oxidized, so it is a reducing agent in this reaction.

An oxidation-reduction are definite  type of chemical reaction that present a transfer of electrons between two species or elements.

An oxidation-reduction reaction may be wide range of  chemical reaction in which the oxidation number of a molecule, atom, or ion alters by gaining or losing of  electrons.

Answer 2

Answer:

oxidation is the correct answer
