1.	Hydrogen peroxide is an oxidising agent. It oxidises ferrous ion to ferric ion and reduced itself to water. Write a balanced equation.
Answer» Solution :`H_2O_2 ` - OXIDISING agent `Fe^(2+)+H_(2)O_(2) to Fe^(3+)+H_(2)O` (Acetic Medium) Ferrous ION is OXIDIZED by `H_2O_2` to Ferric ion The balanced EQUATION is `Fe^(2+)to Fe^(3+)+e^(-)xx2` `H_2O_(2)+2H^(+)+2cancel(e^(-)) to 2H_(2)O` `2Fe^(2+)to 2Fe^(3+)+cancel(2e^(-))`. `(H_(2)O_(2)+2H^(+)to2H_(2)O)/(2Fe^(2+)+H_(2)O_(2)+2H^(+)to2Fe^(3+)+2H_(2)O)`
