Identify reducing agent in following reaction $\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}_{2(\mathrm{ag})}+\mathrm{ClO}_{4_{(\mathrm{aq})}}^{-} \rightarrow \mathrm{ClO}_{2_{(\mathrm{a})}}^{-}+\mathrm{O}_{2_{(\mathrm{g})}}$
  1. $\mathrm{ClO}_{2(\mathrm{aq})}^{-}$
  2. $\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}_{2(\mathrm{ag})}$
  3. $\mathrm{ClO}_{4(\mathrm{aq})}^{-}$
  4. $\mathrm{O}_{2(\mathrm{~g})}$

Solution

$\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}_2$ is Reducing Agent
