Question

Is the following reaction is a redox reaction?

$Ba{O}_2+H_{2}S{O}_4\to BaS{O}_4+H_2{O}_2$

Answer 1

1)The above given equation is a redox reaction.

2)Reaction between$Ba{O}_2$ and$H_{2}S{O}_4$ is$Ba{O}_2+H_{2}S{O}_4\Rightarrow BaS{O}_4+H_2{O}_2.$The most electron negative element in products is oxygen. O.N. of O in $BaS{O}_4,H_2{O}_2$ is$-2,-1$ respectively.
