Why should hydrogen peroxide be kept in a cool place?

Hydrogen peroxide should be stored in a cool place because the cold air causes decompasition to slow down. Hydrogern peroxide spontaneously decomposes into oxygen and water but the process is slowed when it is properly stored.


Why H2O2 is stored in coloured wax?

Hydrogen peroxide, which has the formula H2O2, is preferably stored in dark coloured bottles because visible light can catalyze the decomposition of the peroxide to water and oxygen.


Why hydrogen peroxide is stored in wax lined black colored bottles.?

The purpose is to avoid decomposition of H2O2.


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.


What would most likely be the product of H2 plus 02?

Hydrogen and oxygen can for water or hydrogen peroxide. Hydrogen peroxide is unstable, so unless it is stored in a dark container it will break down into water.


How should you dispose of hydrogen Peroxide?

Hydrogen peroxide will not damage your plumbing, so you are free to pour it down the drain.


Is swallowing hydrogen peroxide safe?

Hydrogen peroxide can be diluted with water and used as a gargle but should never be swallowed. In the event you do swallow concentrated hydrogen peroxide, drink water and DO NOTattempt to vomit. Contact your physician should you begin to feel ill.


Does hydrogen peroxide lose its strength?

Hydrogen peroxide decomposes through a thermodynamically favourable reaction: 2H2O2 → 2H2O + O2 The rate of this reaction increases with temperature and depends on factors like its concentration, pH and the prescence of a catalyst. Thus, a bottle of hydrogen peroxide can decompose when stored under unfavourable conditions.

Where should raw meats be stored?

Will Hydrogen peroxide explode when next to a heated area?

Potentially, but only in the way that water (Dihydrogen Monoxide) could "explode." The heat source would have to be hot enough to cause the hydrogen peroxide to reach its boiling point (150.2 Degrees Celsius) and create enough force to rupture the container it was stored in. Note that common household Hydrogen Peroxide is a very small percentage of actual H2O2. Pure H2O2 is a powerful oxidizer which could possibly cause a fire or some form of explosion if spilled in a high temperature environment.
