Q2 / 90 · JEE Main 2023 (08 Apr Shift 2) · Chemistry
Which of the following can reduce decomposition of on exposure to light
- Correct answerAUrea
- BAlkali
- CGlass containers
- DDust
Solution
decomposes on exposure to sunlight or on heating. It also decomposes on standing but at a slow rate. These reactions occur explosively when is in contact with dust. Urea acts as a negative catalyst to this reaction and slow down the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide.
Hence, the correct answer is option: 'A'.
