(1) I2 + H2O2 + 2OH− ⟶ 2I− + 2H2O + O2 (2) H2O2 + HOCl ⟶ Cl− + H3O+ + O2

Question

(1) $\require{mhchem}\ce{I2 +H2O2 +2OH- -> 2I- +2H2O +O2}$

(2) $\ce{H2O2 +HOCl->Cl- +H3O+ +O2}$

(1) H₂O₂ is acting as oxidising agent in both the reaction

(2) H₂O₂ is acting as reducing agent in both the reaction

(3) H₂O₂ is acting as oxidising agent in reaction (1) and as reducing agent in reaction (2)

(4) H₂O₂ is acting as reducing agent in reaction (1) and as oxidising agent in reaction (2)
