Both the statements are true but statement 2 is not the correct explanation of the statement 1
- In alkaline solution, H₂O₂ reacts with potassium ferricyanide. The Potassium ferricyanide is reduced to potassium ferrocyanide in this reaction
- So the statement 1 is true
- H₂O₂ can act as both oxidising agent and as a reducing agent also
- so the statement that H₂O₂ is a strong reducing agent is also true
