The reaction,

{\mathrm{H}_2}\mathrm{S} + {\mathrm{H}_2}{\mathrm{O}_2} \to \mathrm{S} + 2{\mathrm{H}_2}\mathrm{O}

manifests:

View answer and explanation

Correct option: C

Oxidizing nature of

{\mathrm{H}_2}{\mathrm{O}_2}

Option C (Oxidizing nature of

{\mathrm{H}_2}{\mathrm{O}_2}

) is correct because in this reaction,

{\mathrm{H}_2}{\mathrm{O}_2}

oxidizes

{\mathrm{H}_2}\mathrm{S}

to S, meaning

{\mathrm{H}_2}{\mathrm{O}_2}

itself is reduced, thus acting as an oxidizing agent.
