Q. In which of the following reactions hydrogen peroxide is a reducing agent?
A) $H_{2}{SO}_{3} + H_{2}O_{2} \rightarrow H_{2}{SO}_{4} + H_{2}O$
B) $2HI + H_{2}O_{2} \rightarrow 2H_{2}O + I_{2}$
C) $2{FeCl}_{2} + 2HCl + H_{2}O_{2} \rightarrow 2{FeCl}_{3} + 2H_{2}O$
D) ${Cl}_{2} + H_{2}O_{2} \rightarrow 2HCl + O_{2}$
