Manganese dioxide is a catalyst for the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide.
It is not recommended because by storing it in a glass, the pressure can't build up in the container and it will explode. A way to keep it from exploding is putting it in plastic (so the pressure can build up if it needs to) opaque (so the energy in the form of light doesn't get into the bottle) bottles.
Potentially, but only in the way that water (Dihydrogen Monoxide) could "explode." The heat source would have to be hot enough to cause the hydrogen peroxide to reach its boiling point (150.2 Degrees Celsius) and create enough force to rupture the container it was stored in. Note that common household Hydrogen Peroxide is a very small percentage of actual H2O2. Pure H2O2 is a powerful oxidizer which could possibly cause a fire or some form of explosion if spilled in a high temperature environment.
Sodium and potassium are two metals that can explode in water because they react violently with water to produce hydrogen gas. This reaction is highly exothermic, causing the hydrogen gas to ignite and explode.
Hydrogen. The simplest element
According to Wikipedia:"Hydrogen gas forms explosive mixtures with air if it is 4-74% concentrated and with chlorine if it is 5-95% concentrated. The mixtures spontaneously explode by spark, heat or sunlight. The hydrogen autoignition temperature, the temperature of spontaneous ignition in air, is 500 °C (932 °F)."
First of all,let's bear in mind that the "Hydrogen" $ "Oxygen" mentioned are atoms and not molecules. So based on the 8-electron(Octet) rule by Lewis, The sum total of electrons around the central atom of the molecule should equal the atomic number of the neighbouring noble gas( in the same period)which signifies stability . Neon follows Oxygen in the same period. And Oxygen which initially has 6 electrons in its outermost shell,will eventually have 8 electrons surrounding it(after 2 hydrogen atoms,-each with just 1 electron- have attached themselves to it), thereby enhancing its stability and that of the eventual water molecule. So based on the above theory, I confidently and proudly say that Water molecules are more stable than either the Hydrogen or Oxygen atom.( +2347031203995, Dominic Chuma),sigmoidbearer@yahoo.com
it's the aerosol.
While I wouldn't really want to store any of those next to a heat source, it is the aerosol can that is likely to explode.

A mixture of hydrogen and oxygen would be a highly flammable gaseous mixture. If ignited, the mixture would burn, explode, and form water vapor. Water is not a mixture of hydrogen and oxygen but a compound.
Hydrogen can explode when mixed with oxygen in the presence of an ignition source. This can happen in environments where hydrogen and oxygen are present in the correct proportions, such as in a confined space. It is important to handle hydrogen safely to prevent such explosions.

Hydrogen is highly flammable and can explode when exposed to a spark, flame, or heat source in the presence of oxygen. The explosion occurs due to the rapid combustion of hydrogen gas with oxygen in the air.
It is the Carbon Dioxide that does it.
The decompression of released carbon dioxide.

No, a hydrogen bomb does not explode upon impact with the ground. The detonation of a hydrogen bomb is triggered by a specific mechanism designed to initiate the fusion reaction within the bomb's core.
