1.	Hydrogen peroxide is a powerful oxidizing agent. It is an electron acceptor in acidic and alkaline mediums. H_(2)O_(2)+H^(+)+2erarr2H_(2)O (in acidic medium) H_(2)O_(2)+2erarr2OH^(-) (in alkaline medium) It can also act as a reducing agent towards powerful oxidizing agents. H_(2)O_(2)rarr2H^(+)+O_(2)+2e In alkalinemedium, however, its reducing nature is more effective. H_(2)O_(2)+2OHrarr2H_(2)O+O_(2)+2e What is the product of the reaction of H_(2)O_(2) with Cl_(2)
Answer» `O_(2)+HOCl` `HCl+O_(2)` `H_(2)O+HCl` `HCl+H_(2)` SOLUTION :`H_(2)O_(2) + Cl_(2) RARR HCl + O_(2)`
