Solution
The correct option is A STATEMENT-1 is True, STATEMENT-2 is True; STATEMENT-2 is a correct explanation for STATEMENT-1 Due to more hydrogen bonds per molecule, (4 in H2O2 and 3 in H2O), the hydrogen bonding is stronger in H2O2. Hence due to more intermolecular forces, boiling point of H2O2 is slightly higher than H2O
