onceptual Problems Conceptual Problems> 5. Which statement about this redox reaction is correct? 2MnO4 (aq) +5H202(aq) 6H'(aq)- 2Mn2 (aq) + 502(g) + 8H20 H2O2 acts as an oxidizing agent. 02 acts as the oxidizing agent in this reaction. H202 acts as a reducing agent Only oxidation has taken place 6. Under certain conditions, H:02 can act as an oxidizing agent; under other conditions, as a reducing agent. A good theore compound can become more stable by either by gaining OR losing electrons. Squash #4?pg squash #3 ?pq I squash #2ipg - squash plant pg O Type here to search

Explanation / Answer

5.

Since the oxidation state of O in H2O2 changes from - 1 to 0 in O2 and hence it undergoes oxidation. SO, it acts as reducing agent.

(c) H2O2 acts as reducing agent.
