Both H2O2 and 2OH- are chemical species with two hydrogen atoms and two oxgen atoms Briefly explain how these species are different?

While both H2O2 (hydrogen peroxide) and 2OH- (hydroxide ion) contain two hydrogen and two oxygen atoms, they differ in their chemical properties and behavior. H2O2 is a weak oxidizing agent that can decompose into water and oxygen, whereas 2OH- is a negatively charged ion that acts as a base in chemical reactions, readily accepting protons to form water.


How is the compounds H2O2 and 2OH- different?

H2O2 consists of 2 oxygen atoms bonded to one another and 1 hydrogen atom each. It is has no electric charge. 2OH- is 2 separate OH- ions, which is not a compound. Each ion contains one oxygen and one hydrogen bonded together and carries a negative charge. To form a compound they must be accompanied by some positive ion to balance out the charge.
