Question

Which of the following is true regarding $H_2{O}_2$?

• A. Dimagnetic in nature.
• B. A better polar solvent than $H_{2}O$.
• C. More highly associated via hydrogen bonding than water.
• D. Pale red in colour at ${25}^{\circ }C$

Answer 1

Answer: (A), (B), (C)

The correct options are
A Dimagnetic in nature.
B A better polar solvent than $H_{2}O$.
C More highly associated via hydrogen bonding than water.

Physical properties of $H_2{O}_2$ :
1. Pale blue syrupy liquid.
2. Freezes at $–{0.5}^{\circ }C$ and has a density of $1.4gc{m}^{-3}$ in pure state.
3. More highly associated via hydrogen bonding than water.
4. Diamagnetic in nature.
5. A better polar solvent than $H_{2}O$
6. Dipole moment = 2.1 D
7.Has a strong auto oxidation ability.
