Easy

A

H₂O₂ has weak acidic property
B

H₂O₂ has weak basic property
C

H₂O₂ can act as oxidising agent
D

H₂O₂ can act as a reducing agent

Solution

⇒H₂O₂ can acts as 1) oxidising aqent 2) Reducing agent and with strong bases [Ba(OH)₂] it acts as weak acid, but it can't acts as base.
⇒Example for H₂O₂ acts as oxidising agent (OA)

⇒ Example for H₂O₂ acts as reducing agent (R.A)

⇒ Example for acidic nature of H₂O₂

$\large \mathop {{H_2}{O_2}}\limits_{Acid} \; + \;\mathop {2NaOH}\limits_{Base} \; \to \;\mathop {N{a_2}{O_2}}\limits_{Salt} \; + \;2{H_2}O$
