I will help you but first I'd like to know what you know about this reaction and what you think could happen. What is H2O2?
What function could it play?
What are the ions that make up FeSO4/ if dissolved in aqueous solution what does it dissociate to?
This reaction is carried out under aqueous conditions because H2O2 is a reactant. In this reaction H2O2 is not being used "neat" or pure but as a solution in H2O.
Let me know what you think. Rather than just giving you the answer, I would rather do it this way as this will help you understand and remember why the answer is what it is better.
