Q. Which one of the following is an example of a true peroxide?

BVP MedicalBVP Medical 2012

Solution:

Barium peroxide (Ba02) is an example of a true peroxide because it contains peroxide ion $ (O_{2}^{2-}) $ or $ {{[-O-O-]}^{2-}} $ and gives $ {{H}_{2}}{{O}_{2}} $ when reacts with acids. $ Ba{{O}_{2}}+{{H}_{2}}S{{O}_{4}}\xrightarrow{{}}BaS{{O}_{4}}+{{H}_{2}}{{O}_{2}} $
