In both these reactions hydrogen peroxide acts as a reducing agent, as O3 and Ag2O are reduced. H2O2+O3 arrow H2O+ text2 textO2 H2O2+ textA textg2O arrow text2Ag+H2O+O2

Q. $(a)$ $H_{2} O_{2} + O_{3} \to H_{2} O + 2 O_{2}$
$(b)$ $H_{2} O_{2} + A g_{2} O \to 2Ag + H_{2} O + O_{2}$
Role of hydrogen peroxide in the above reactions is respectively

Reducing in $(a)$ and oxidizing in $(b)$

Oxidizing in $(a)$ and reducing in $(b)$

Reducing in $(a)$ and $(b)$

Oxidizing in $(a)$ and $(b)$

In both these reactions hydrogen peroxide acts as a reducing agent, as $O_{3}$ and $A g_{2} O$ are reduced.
$H_{2} O_{2} + O_{3} \to H_{2} O + 2 O_{2}$
$H_{2} O_{2} + A g_{2} O \to 2Ag + H_{2} O + O_{2}$
