Detailed Solution

The chemical name for hydrogen peroxide is H2O2
H has an oxidation number of 1, but when mixed with fewer electronegative elements, it becomes negative.
Since oxygen has a greater electronegative charge than hydrogen, the amount of hydrogen that is oxidised in H2O2 be X.
Let the amount of oxygen for oxidation in.
As a result, the total number of oxidations for all the atoms in a neutral chemical is zero.

(x×2)+((+1)×2)=02x+2=0x=1
