Vedclass · Answer

(D) $H_2O_2$ is thermally unstable and it decomposes easily according to the reaction: $H_2O_{2(l)} 	o H_2O_{(l)} + \frac{1}{2}O_{2(g)}$.Its decomposition is catalysed by trace amounts of impurities,such as alkali metals present in the glass of the vessel,which makes it unsuitable as a stable solvent.

The dipole moment of $H_2O_2$ is more than that of $H_2O$,but $H_2O_2$ is not a good solvent because:
