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.

What is the difference between hydrogen Peroxide and hydrogen dioxide?
They are the same chemical.
What is the difference between food grade peroxide and regular peroxide of the same strength?
"Regular" hydrogen peroxide often contains a small amount of acetanilide as a stabilizing agent.
Detail of reaction between sodium sulphite and hydrogen peroxide?
reaction betwen sodiumbisulphite and hydrogen peroxide
What kind of bond is Hydrogen Peroxide?
covalent the electronegitivity of carbon is 2.1 the electronegitivity of oxygen is 3.5 if the difference between them is less then 1.67, then the bond is covalent. if the difference between them is more than 1.67, then the bind is ionic 3.5-2.1=1.4 so the bond of hydrogen peroxide is covalent because the difference between the electronegitivities is less than 1.67
What is the difference between water and hydrogen peroxide?
Water is H2O 2 atoms of Hydrogen and one atom of Oxygen Peroxide is H2O2 2 atoms of Hydrogen and 2 atoms of Oxygen.
What is the difference between hydrogen Peroxide and hydrogen dioxide?
They are the same chemical.
What is the difference between 6 percent 9 percent and 12 percent peroxide?
The difference between 6%, 9%, and 12% Hydrogen Peroxide solution is the Hydrogen content.
What is the difference in hydrogen and hydrogen Peroxide?
Hydrogen is an element.Hydrogen peroxide is a compound.
What is Difference between hydrogen peroxide chemical formula?
Hydrogen peroxide may be represented as H2O2 or HO-OH, with contrast to normal oxides the oxidation number of oxygen in peroxide is -1.
What is the difference between food grade peroxide and regular peroxide of the same strength?
"Regular" hydrogen peroxide often contains a small amount of acetanilide as a stabilizing agent.
What is the purity difference between hydrogen peroxide AR grade and hydrogen peroxide LR grade?
AR is analytical reagent and LR laboratory reagent; practically differences are not significant and depends on the reagents company.

What is the difference in the chemical formulas for water and hydrogen peroxide?
Water is H2O (2 parts Hydrogen to one of Oxygen) Hydrogen Peroxide is H2O2 or simply HO.
What is the difference between water and hydrogen peroxide?
Water is H2O 2 atoms of Hydrogen and one atom of Oxygen Peroxide is H2O2 2 atoms of Hydrogen and 2 atoms of Oxygen.
What is the difference between bleach and peroxide?
Bleach is Sodium Hypochlorite, Peroxide is Hydrogen Peroxide. The word 'Bleach' is used by many people to denote the mixture of Hydrogen Peroxide and Ammonia or Ammonia Compounds with thickeners, conditioners, bluing and other ingredients to to lighten the hair and the two compounds are not similar except that they are both strong oxidizers.
Is the chemical formula for water H2O2?
NO!!!! H2O2 is hydrogen peroxide H2O is water. Note there is a difference of one atom of oxygen.
