FROM a recent discussion with J. H. Baxendale and P. George, we understand that they have from kinetic studies proposed a reaction scheme for the mechanism of the evolution of oxygen from hydrogen ...

THE formation of a well-defined red complex between hydrogen peroxide and methæmoglobin or metmyoglobin is well established 1–3. Keilin and Hartree found that the formation requires one molecule of ...

The question of whether water can form hydrogen peroxide should be answered by thermodynamics (see C&EN, June 13, 2022, page 3). If a reaction is possible (spontaneous), then the change in the Gibbs ...

When water is split electrolytically, the result is typically hydrogen -- and 'useless' oxygen. Instead of oxygen, you can also produce hydrogen peroxide, which is required for many branches of ...

First produced by French chemist Louis Jacques Thénard in 1818, hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2) has many uses. The chemical industry produces over 5 million tonnes of H 2 O 2 per year, for products such ...

Some chemical reactions change temperature, change color, produce a gas, or make a solid from two liquids. Try this reaction and see what it does! Pour 1 tablespoon of hydrogen peroxide into a cup.
