Question

Given below are two statements:

Statement I : ${H}_{2}{O}_{2}$ can act as both oxidising and reducing agent in basic medium.

Statement II : In the hydrogen economy, the energy is transmitted in the form of dihydrogen. In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:

Correct answer: B. Both statement I and statement II are true

(a) H _ 2 O _ 2 can acts as both oxidising and reducing agent in basic medium. (i) 2 Fe ^ 2 + + H _ 2 O _ 2 → 2 Fe ^ 3 + + 2 OH ^ - In this reaction, H _ 2 O _ 2 acts as oxidising agent. (b) The basic principle of hydrogen economy is the transportation and storage of energy in the form of liquids or gaseous dihydrogen. Advantage of hydrogen economy is that energy is transmitted in the form of dihydrogen and not as electric power
