1.	How is hydrogen peroxide prepared industrially ? Explain why it is stored in coloured wax-lined glass or plasticbottles ?
Answer» Solution :Industrially, `H_(2)O_(2)` is perpared by the auto oxidation of 2-ethylanthraquionol to 2-ethylanthraquinone. `H_(2)O_(2)` is STORED in wax-lined glass or PLASTIC bottles so that it does not decompose into `H_(2)OandO_(2).` Because it is decomposed to `H_(2)OandO_(2)` when COMES in contact with sunlight.
