    Which of the following acts both as oxidising and reducing agent?

    A)  \[HN{{O}_{3}}\]                              

    B)  \[{{K}_{2}}C{{r}_{2}}{{O}_{7}}\]

    C)  \[KMn{{O}_{4}}\]                           

    D)  \[{{H}_{2}}{{O}_{2}}\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    lift 2 acts both as an oxidising and reducing  agent. eg, (i) \[A{{g}_{2}}O\] is reduced into \[Ag\] \[A{{g}_{2}}O+{{H}_{2}}{{O}_{2}}\xrightarrow{{}}2Ag+{{H}_{2}}O+{{O}_{2}}\] (ii) \[KN{{O}_{2}}\] is oxidised into \[KN{{O}_{3}}\] \[KN{{O}_{2}}+{{H}_{2}}{{O}_{2}}\xrightarrow{{}}KN{{O}_{3}}+{{H}_{2}}O\]
