Solution

PbS(s)+4H2O2(aq)PbSO4(s)+4H2O(l)
H2O2 is acting as an oxidizing agent in the reaction. Hence, it is a redox reaction.

4MnO4(aq)+6H2O(g)12OH(aq)+4Mn2+(aq)+5O2(g)
H2O2(g) is acting as a reducing agent in the acidic medium, thereby oxidizing MnO4(aq).
Hence the given reaction is a redox reaction.

CaO(s)+H2O(l)Ca(OH)2(aq)
The reactions in which a compound reacts with water to produce other compounds are called hydrolysis reactions. The given reaction is hydrolysis.

2AlCl3(g)+3H2O(l)Al2O3(s)+6HCl(aq)
The reactions in which a compound react with water to produce compounds are called hydrolysis reactions. The given reaction represents hydrolysis of AlCl3.

Ca3N2(s)+6H2O(l)3Ca(OH)2(aq)+2NH3(g)
The reactions in which a compound reacts with water to produce other compounds are called hydrolysis reactions. The given reaction represents hydrolysis of Ca3N2.
