Ncert Exercises & Solutions

Hydrogen peroxide is obtained by the electrolysis of ______.

1. water

2. sulphuric acid

3. hydrochloric acid

4. fused sodium peroxide

Hint: Compound is dehydrating agent

Peroxodisulphate, obtained by electrolytic oxidation of acidified sulphate solutions at high current density, on hydrolysis yields hydrogen peroxide.

The reaction is as follows:

$2 {HSO}_{4}^{-} (aq) \overset{Electrolysis}{\to} {HO}_{3} {SOOSO}_{3} H (aq) \overset{Hydrolysis}{\to} 2 {HSO}_{4}^{-} (aq) + 2 H^{+} (aq) + H_{2} O_{2} (aq)$
