No it is not the same,

Ammonia is NH3, a compound of hydrogen and nitrogen. It is a base and is note for its strong smell.

Hydrogen peroxide is H2O2, a compound of hydrogen and oxygen. It is very mildly acidic and is noted for its ability to decompose and release oxygen gas.

What is the chemical formula for oxygen hydrogen?

the way you ask the question it would be HO, but it can't happen that way, HO is really H2O2 or hydrogen peroxide. this is my answer. However, the more common compound is water, or H2O. the above is not part of my answer and is wrong. HO and H2O are diffrerent things. HO does not really occur naturally, it occurs as H2O2 or hydrogen peroxide and while it is similar to water, it is NOT water, ingest enough and you will DIE. Hydrogen peroxide, H2O2 and water H2O are DIFFERENT. what you say is like saying carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide are the same thing, or aqueous ammonia and anhydrous ammonia are the dame thing. Hydrogen peroxide (H202) and dihydrogen monoxide (h20) are NOT the same thing.


How are water and hydrogen peroxide are the same?

Both are compounds consisting entirely of hydrogen and oxygen. Water is H2O. Hydrogen peroxide is H2O2.
