Mostly because it is sensitive to temperature changes and light, and will decompose back to water & oxygen if it is exposed too too high of temperatures or too much light. Hydrogen peroxide is H2O2, and will readily switch back to H2O and O2, both much more stable molecules.
No. Hydrogen peroxide is usually dissolved in water to make it more stable. The peroxide you buy at the pharmacy is 3% hydrogen peroxide and 97% water. Pure hydrogen peroxide, which is a dangerously strong oxidizer, can explosively decompose into water and oxygen.
Typically 3% hydrogen peroxide can be found in the health and beauty department of most major retailers and drug stores. Food grade is also available, but is usually only found in health food stores as an alternative to chlorine bleach for sanitizing. Lastly, sodium percarbonate, aka oxygen bleach releases hydrogen peroxide and soda ash when mixed with water. Most brands have fillers, so use caution depending on the intended use. Hydrogen peroxide is a fairly unstable molecule and breaks down in light (this is why it's sold in dark brown bottles).
No Hydrogen Oxide is usually written H2O2 and is called hydrogen peroxide and is an unstable liquid used to cleanse wounds. Dihydrogen oxide is H2O and is usually called water.
No, hydrogen peroxide is two hydroxyl groups (OH) with bounded oxygens. Hydroperoxide is a deprotonated version (one of the OH's is an O- instead). However they usually exist together as the deprotonation occurs easily in the presence of water.
When sodium potassium permanganate and hydrogen peroxide interact 30% of oxygen gas is usually produced from the mixture.

it has 2 benzene rings usually synthesized in the lab from benzoyl chloride and hydrogen peroxide
Wipe the blood off with hydrogen peroxide, then clean the peroxide off with water after you get the blood out. Peroxide will usually get blood out of most fabrics.

Hydrogen peroxide is a clear colorless liquid that is infinitely soluble in water. Agricultural pesticide products usually contain no more than 35% hydrogen peroxide, which is then usually diluted to 1% or less when applied as a spray or a liquid. In its more concentrated form, hydrogen peroxide is extremely corrosive and irritating to skin, eyes and mucous membrane, and can be explosive if not stored under proper conditions.
No Hydrogen Oxide is usually written H2O2 and is called hydrogen peroxide and is an unstable liquid used to cleanse wounds. Dihydrogen oxide is H2O and is usually called water.
H2O2 does not kill ringworm because the ringworm are usually a fungus infection and it is too deep in the epidermis to really penetrate the fungus. Thus Hydrogen Peroxide is not supposed to be used

Old Clorox bottles are collectable items. Many of them are on sale on eBay. These bottles are glass and are typically colored amber. They usually sell for under $20.
It is Hydrogen Peroxide H2O2, usually it is used to remove dirt and further infection to cuts.
When sodium potassium permanganate and hydrogen peroxide interact 30% of oxygen gas is usually produced from the mixture.
Peroxide is a Chemical Compound; which is created by two oxygen atoms bonding together, by a single bond. Hydrogen Peroxide is most commonly thought of when a person hears peroxide. Hydrogen peroxide is an oxidizer. It is the simplest form of peroxide.
