Peroxide commonly refers to hydrogen peroxide, or H2O2, which is composes only of hydrogen and oxygen. However, in chemistry it can also refer to the peroxide ion O22- which is composed only of oxygen. The former usage of the term "peroxide" is more common.

What are the active ingredients in hydrogen peroxide?
Hydrogen peroxide is H2O2 and contain hydrogen and oxygen. The active ingredient is the released oxygen.
Does hydrogen peroxide release parasites into body?
No. Hydrogen peroxide does not contain parasites.
Is hydrogen peroxide a reactant?
I think Hydrogen Peroxide is a reactant,because hydrogen and oxygen are reactants so hydrogen peroxide should be a reactant.
Is zonrox chlorox is a kind of hydrogen peroxide?
Chlorox bleaches contain hypochlorite- and not hydrogen peroxide. Zonrox may make other bleaches which contain peroxide.
What kind of reaction is made between hydrogen peroxide and yeast?
Hydrogen Peroxide decomposes in oxygen gas and water.
What are the active ingredients in hydrogen peroxide?
Hydrogen peroxide is H2O2 and contain hydrogen and oxygen. The active ingredient is the released oxygen.
What elements make H2O2?
Hydrogen peroxide contain hydrogen and oxygen.
What does Hydrogen peroxide decompose into?
Hydrogen peroxide decomposes into water and oxygen.
Can you purify your water well with hydrogen peroxide?
No, hydrogen peroxide is H2O2, meaning in each molecule there are two hydrogen atoms and two oxygen atoms. Water is H2O, meaning that each molecules has two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom. Hydrogen peroxide has different chemical and physical properties from water. It is more acidic, more viscous, and has a higher boiling point. It decomposes easily into water and oxygen and is a strong oxidizer.
Does hydrogen peroxide release parasites into body?
No. Hydrogen peroxide does not contain parasites.
What other things have hydrogen and oxygen atoms?
Many, many compounds contain either hydrogen atoms, oxygen atoms, or both. Far too many to list here, in fact.Most prominently water and hydrogen peroxide both contain nothing but oxygen and hydrogen atoms.
Is hydrogen peroxide a reactant?
I think Hydrogen Peroxide is a reactant,because hydrogen and oxygen are reactants so hydrogen peroxide should be a reactant.
Is zonrox chlorox is a kind of hydrogen peroxide?
Chlorox bleaches contain hypochlorite- and not hydrogen peroxide. Zonrox may make other bleaches which contain peroxide.
What kind of reaction is made between hydrogen peroxide and yeast?
Hydrogen Peroxide decomposes in oxygen gas and water.
How many parts of oxygen are in hydrogen peroxide?
The chemical formula for hydrogen peroxide is H2O2, that is, two parts oxygen for every two parts hydrogen.
How is the formula for water different than the formula for hydrogen peroxide?
Water is H2O. Hydrogen peroxide is H2O2. Hydrogen peroxide has one more oxygen atom per molecule than water. The extra oxygen is what makes it a peroxide. "Hydrogen oxide" would be water. The extra oxygen also makes hydrogen peroxide much more reactive than water due to the unstable oxygen-oxygen bond.
How many hydrogen atoms and oxygen atoms are in hydrogen peroxide?
Hydrogen peroxide has two atoms of hydrogen and oxygen.
