Which of the following cannot be oxidised by `H_(2)O_(2)` ?A. PbSB. `O_(3)(g)`C. `Na_(2)SO_(3)(aq)`D. `KI(aq)`.

Answer» Correct Answer - B
`H_(2)O_(2)` cannot oxidise `O_(3).O_(3)` is a stronger oxidising agent than `H_(2)O_(2)` as such `H_(2)O_(2)` cannot oxidise `O_(3)`. In the reaction,
`O_(3)+H_(2)O_(2)to2O_(2)+H_(2)O`
`H_(2)O_(2)` is oxidised and `O_(3)` is reduced.
