In basic medium, oxidizing action of H2O2

\mathrm{Mn}^{2+}+\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}_{2} \rightarrow \mathrm{Mn}^{+4}+2 \mathrm{OH}^{-}

In basic medium, reducing action of H2O2

\mathrm{I}_{2}+\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}_{2}+2 \mathrm{OH}^{-} \rightarrow 2 \mathrm{I}^{-}+2 \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}+\mathrm{O}_{2}

In acidic medium, oxidising action of H2O2 , But not in a basic medium.

\mathrm{PbS}(\mathrm{s})+4 \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}_{2}(\mathrm{aq}) \rightarrow \mathrm{PbSO}_{4}(\mathrm{~s})+4 \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}(\ell)

Therefore, the Correct option is (1)
