Among the statements (a) - (d), the correct ones are: (a) Decomposition of hydrogen peroxide gives dioxygen. (b) Like hydrogen peroxide, compounds, such as and
when heated, also liberate dioxygen. (c) 2-Ethylanthraquinol is useful fo the industrial prepartion of hydrogen peroxide. (d) Hydrogen peroxide is used for the manufacture of sodium perborate.
Option: 1 a, b, c and d
Option: 2 a , b and c only
Option: 3 a, c and d only
Option: 4 a and c only
(a) Decomposition of hydrogen peroxide gives dioxygen.
— Correct. Hydrogen peroxide decomposes as:
2 H?O? → 2 H?O + O?
(b) Compounds like KClO?, Pb(NO?)?, and NaNO? liberate dioxygen on heating.
— Correct. These compounds release oxygen gas upon thermal decomposition.
(c) 2-Ethylanthraquinol is useful for the industrial preparation of hydrogen peroxide.
— Correct. It is used in the anthraquinone process, which is a commercial method for producing H?O?.
(d) Hydrogen peroxide is used in the manufacture of sodium perborate.
— Correct. H?O? reacts with borax and sodium hydroxide to produce sodium perborate.
Correct Option: 1 — a, b, c and d
