Dear student,
Hydrogen                               Peroxide is a is a strong oxidizing agent and a                               weak acid in water solution. The formular is similar                               to that of water, with an extra atom of oxygen attached,                               H2O2. It is completely soluble in water. Pure anhydrous                               hydrogen peroxide is a colorless to pale blue  syrupy                               liquid which decomposes violently into water and                               oxygen if heated above 80 C. it also decomposes                               in light and in the presence of metal ions or oxidizable                               organic materials. A small amount of stabilizer                               such as acetanilide is added to the solutions to                               retard the decomposition. One volume of hydrogen                               peroxide releases ten volumes of oxygen when it                               decomposes. It is commercially prepared by electrolysis                               of ammonium bisulfate or potassium bisulfate with                               sulfuric acid. Catalytic oxidation of hydrogen and                               water with oxygen using nickel, palladium, or platinum                               with an anthraquinone, reaction of barium peroxide                               with sulfuric acid and by oxidation of isopropanol                               with acetone are also industrial processes for the                               production of hydrogen peroxide.
