Hydrogen Peroxide

Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is a chemical compound consisting of two hydrogen and two oxygen atoms, functioning as a powerful, environmentally friendly oxidizer that decomposes into water and oxygen. In its pure form, it is a very pale blue, viscous liquid, though it is typically handled as a colorless, aqueous solution. Commonly found in households at low concentrations (3%–6%) for cleaning and antiseptic purposes, it is widely utilized in higher concentrations for industrial bleaching, semiconductor manufacturing, and as a rocket propellant.
