Hydrogen peroxide is a weak acid. Generally, acids distinguishable by the hydrogen proton, while bases are generally anything with a hydroxide. For instance, hydrochloric acid, or HCl, can be distinguished by the H+ bonded with Cl-. NaOH on the other hand, is a bond between Na+ and OH-. As acids are proton donors, and bases are proton acceptors, it makes sense that the H+ from any acid bonds with the OH- of a base in order to form H2O.

Is peroxide a base?
The peroxide ion (O22-) is a base. Hydrogen peroxide is mildly acidic.
What is negative catalyst in the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide?
phosphoric acid
Is sodium peroxide an acid or base?
It is a word.
Hydrogen peroxide peracetic acid acetic acid can these three be shipped in the same box and what happens if they mix?
Peracetic acid is made by reacting hydrogen peroxide and acetic acid. It is shipped in a solution of peracetic acid and hydrogen peroxide--it's not stable if shipped by itself.So...not only can peracetic acid and hydrogen peroxide be shipped in the same box, they can be shipped (no, change that to "are shipped") in the same container. As for acetic acid...depends on the concentration. If it's five-percent acetic acid, no problem. Peracetic acid and hydrogen peroxide are both very powerful oxidizers, and pure acetic acid's flammable, so I wouldn't ship glacial acetic acid in the same truck with either of those other two chemicals, much less the same box.
Laboratory preparation of oxygen using hydrogen peroxide and hydrochloric acid?
type preparation of oxygen using hydrogen peroxide on you tube and there is a helpful video.
Is hydrogen peroxyde acid or base?
Hydrogen peroxide is slightly acidic.
Is peroxide a base?
The peroxide ion (O22-) is a base. Hydrogen peroxide is mildly acidic.
Will hydrogen peroxide neutralize stomach acid?
No!
Does hydrogen peroxide contain nitric acid?
No, hydrogen peroxide and alcohol are two very different substances.
Is hydrogen peroxide a binary acid?
Binary
What is negative catalyst in the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide?
phosphoric acid

What has hydrogen peroxide in it?
most permanent hair dyes, the human body makes peroxide as byproduct for some cellular processes
Laboratory preparation of oxygen using hydrogen peroxide and hydrochloric acid?
type preparation of oxygen using hydrogen peroxide on you tube and there is a helpful video.
Why is hydrogen peroxide a base?
because it is a more alkaline substance.
What do you get when you combine acetone and hydrogen peroxide?
The acetone and hydrogen peroxide would react with each other to make the high explosive acetone peroxide. An acid such as hydrochloric is commonly used in the synthesis of acetone peroxide, which speeds up the formation if it.
