13. Strength of H2O2 solution:
The concentration of H2O2 is expressed in terms
of volume strength e.g. '10 volume' '20 volume'
or '30 volume'.
It indicates the volume of oxygen obtained at
NTP by 1 ml of that H2O2 solution.
Few important formulae:
Volume strength = 5.6 x normality
Volume strength = 11.2 x molarity

14. Uses:
(i) Bleaching action: Mild bleaching agent for
delicate articles such as hair, silk, wool, ivory
feather etc.
H2O2,NH3
[Hair
Hair (golden yellow)].
(ii) Converting black lead paintings to white:
H2O2 converts black PbS to white lead sulphate
(reaction associated with painting).
(iii) Qxidant in laboratory
(iv) In detection of Ti, V and Cr ions.
(v) Igniting liquid fuel in rocket engines: It is
used as a concentrated source of oxygen required
to ignite the liquid fuel in jet and rocket.
(vi) Hydrazine hydrate is used in the rockets
NH2:NH2 + 2H2O2
N2 + 4H20
The reaction is exothermic and accompanied by
large increase in volume so that rocket is
propelled.
(vii) As an anitseptic and germicide: For
washing wound, teeth and ears used as antiseptic
in surgical treatment,
(viii) As an antichlor to remove traces of chlorine.
15.Test of H2O2:
(i) Black stain of PbS on filter paper becomes white
with H2O2 due to formation of PbSO4.
(ii) With titanium sulphate H2O2 gives orange red
colour due to the formation of pertitanic acid.
Ti(SO4)2 + H2O2 + 2H2O
H2TiO4 + 2H2SO4
(iii) Gives blue colour with acidified K2Cr2O7 due
to the formation of CrO5 (blue perchromate).
(iv) Liberates iodine with KI in the presence of
FeSO4, which gives blue colour with starch
solution.
