H_(2)O_(2) is an unstable liquid . On standing or on heating it decomposes to H_(2)O and O_(2) . H_(2)O_(2) can acts as oxidising agent and reducing agent . The concentration of H_(2)O_(2) is expressed differently with volume strength and the concentration of H_(2)O_(2) at a particular time is measured by titrating it with acidified KMnO_(4) or by titrating liberated I_(2) from acidified KI and H_(2)O_(2)with hypo solution . A sample of H_(2)O_(2)has 3.4 g of H_(2)O_(2)in 100 mL solution . The bottle containing this sample was kept at 25^(0)C for 15 days then 20mL of this sample is treated with excess KI and the liberated iodine requires 50 mL , 0.2 M Na_(2)S_(2)O_(3) solution .
