Their chemical formulas are different ! Water has two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom in a single molecule - yielding the formula H2O. Hydrogen peroxide has a extra Oxygen molecule - giving the chemical formula H2O2
Different ratio of hydrogen and oxygen
When you say hydrogen and oxygen year meant water (H2O)? Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) has two oxygens not just one. So they are different compounds.
They are totally different compounds, even though they both contain hydrogen and oxygen. The ratios of the elements are not the same. The formula for water is H2O, and for hydrogen peroxide is H2O2. In a molecule of water, two hydrogen atoms are chemically bonded to one oxygen atom, whereas in one molecule of hydrogen peroxide, there are two atoms of hydrogen and two atoms of oxygen bonded together. This makes them completely different compounds with different properties.
Both are compounds consisting entirely of hydrogen and oxygen. Water is H2O. Hydrogen peroxide is H2O2.
Hydrogen peroxide, which has a boiling point of 150.2 degrees, is non-flammable. Related compounds to Hydrogen peroxide include water, hydrazine and hydrogen disulfide.
There are actually two chemical formulas: H2O for water and H2O2 for hydrogen peroxide; some chemists would exclude peroxide as a different material from oxide, but both compounds are oxides of hydrogen.
Only compounds are classified as organic or inorganic.The element hydrogen often occurs in organic compounds. It can also be found in inorganic compounds.All organic compounds contain the element carbon.
There are two such compounds: water and hydrogen peroxide.
Hydrogen peroxide (H202)
Water, H2O, or hydrogen peroxide, H2O2.
Chemically speaking, a peroxide is a molecule which contains two oxygen atoms bonded together by a single bond. Hydrogen peroxide is one common peroxide, but there are many others. The oxygen-oxygen bond is fairly weak, and peroxides tend to be somewhat unstable.
