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.
No! H2O is water and H2O2 is hydrogen peroxide; they have very different chemical properties, because hydrogen peroxide is a strong oxidizing agent and water is not.
When you say hydrogen and oxygen year meant water (H2O)? Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) has two oxygens not just one. So they are different compounds.
Water is H20 while hydrogen peroxide is H202. They have different compositons and therefore different properties, similiar to carbon dioxide, CO2, and carbon monoxide, CO.
Their physical properties are similar except for that hydrogen peroxide is 40% denser.
Water is H2O and hydrogen perioxide is H2O2 hydrogen peroxide has one more oxygen atom than water.

First find out what the law of definite proportions is. Then explain the fact that water and hydrogen peroxide consist of the same elements. Then find out if they have different or the same properties.
They both are made of hydrogen and oxygen. Has 2 H bonds among molecules. They have a few different properties too.
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.
Water is H2O and hydrogen perioxide is H2O2 hydrogen peroxide has one more oxygen atom than water.
No. Peroxide is a solution of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) in water. Ammonia (NH3) is completely different.
Different ratio of hydrogen and oxygen
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. - - - - - "Peroxide" refers to a compound that has two oxygen atoms bonded together with a single bond. This bond isn't stable, and breaks apart fairly easily. Hydrogen peroxide looks like: H - O - O - H The two H - O bonds are very stable. (In water, you've got two of these bonds, so you have a very stable compound.) But if (when?) that O - O bond breaks apart, you have two free radicals that are just looking for another atom to connect to. The thing about H2O2 is, hydrogen peroxide, as unstable as it is, is the most stable peroxide there is. Some peroxides are so dangerous it's illegal to transport them on the roads and they must be produced at the factory they're going to be used at.
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.
