Prescribe medication with Hydrogen Peroxide?
Though the chemical reactions with other elements is in doubt not known to me ,since I'm not a chemist,Hydrogen Peroxide kills healthy skin cells of the epidermis and germs when pouring it to a cut as usual first-aid procedures . But that is all I know, I tested this by pouring hydrogen peroxide on my skin without an open wound and resulted with dead cells on a section of my epidrmis (skin).
Is hydrogen peroxide the same as peroxide?
Peroxide is an compound that can be a part of another chemical to form a molecule. Hydrogen peroxide is two hydrogen atoms attached to a peroxide molecule, forming hydrogen peroxide. Peroxide itself (O2) only exists as molecular oxygen when it is not attached to another chemical.
Will hydrogen peroxide help with wrinkles?
Apparently, hydrogen peroxide can help with wrinkles. First of all you dab a little hydrogen peroxide on your wrinkles using a cotton pad, then apply some olive oil in circular motions for 30 seconds.
What happens to hydrogen peroxide when it is put on a cut?
Peroxide is actually not what does the healing. When you put Hydrogen Peroxide (chemical formula: H2O2) on your wound, it is separated into water and oxygen by the enzyme catalase. The catalase ONLY targets the hydrogen peroxide, and some of the bacteria is forced out with the oxygen (visually seen as the fizzing). THE TRUTH: Peroxide actually doesn't do much for you at all. To get a decent effect, get 4-6 cotton swabs, and wet them with water THEN Peroxide. the water will act as a mode of "transportation" for the bacteria to get out of the cut. This will slightly increase the effectiveness of a SINGLE cotton swab... which is still not much! (Thus the hole "4-6 cottonswabs" comment)
Is hydrogen peroxide a heterogeneous or homogeneous mixture?
Hydrogen Peroxide (H2O2) is a compound, and liquid at room temperature. It is NOT a mixture. However, at room temeprature it slowly decomposes to oxygen and water. 2H2O2 = 2H2O + O2 It the oxygen remains in solution in water then it is heterogeneous solution, NOT Mixture.
Hydrogen peroxide reaction with chalk?
When hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) reacts with chalk (calcium carbonate, CaCO3), the chalk acts as a catalyst to break down the hydrogen peroxide into water (H2O) and oxygen (O2) gas. This reaction produces bubbles of oxygen gas as a result of the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide.
How do plant and animal cells relate to humans?
They relate because they all need food and water and they all have cells.
Does hydrogen peroxide stop foaming when all the infection is gone.?
The foam has nothing to do with infection. Your blood contains a chemical called peroxidase which breaks down peroxides, including hydrogen peroxide. This is what causes the foam. The reason hydrogen peroxide is a good disinfectant is that peroxides in general are very bad for living things. The thing that makes it even better is that you can tolerate it a lot better than bacteria can, because your cells can make peroxidase and unicellular organisms for the most part can't.
Why does hydrgen peroxide bubble when it is poured into a cut?
Hydrogen peroxide decomposes into oxygen gas and water when it comes into contact with an enzyme called catalase present in blood and cells. The release of oxygen gas creates bubbles, which help cleanse the wound by dislodging debris and bacteria.
What are the chemical formulas for water and hydrogen peroxide?
The chemical formula for water is H2O, meaning it has two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom. The chemical formula for hydrogen peroxide is H2O2, indicating it has two hydrogen atoms and two oxygen atoms.
What ionic compounds are involved in hydrogen peroxide?
None.H-O-O-HA rough molecular representation of hydrogen peroxide showing all single covalent bonds. No ionic bonding here.
What kind of Mixture is Hydrogen Peroxide?
It is not a mixture at all. H2O2 is a (pure) compound
