  2. Hydrogen peroxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrogen_peroxide

    Hydrogen peroxide is a chemical compound with the formula H 2 O 2.In its pure form, it is a very pale blue [5] liquid that is slightly more viscous than water.It is used as an oxidizer, bleaching agent, and antiseptic, usually as a dilute solution (3%–6% by weight) in water for consumer use and in higher concentrations for industrial use.

  3. Pinnick oxidation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pinnick_Oxidation

    Hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2) can be used as HOCl scavenger whose byproducts do not interfere in the Pinnick oxidation reaction: HOCl + H 2 O 2 → HCl + O 2 + H 2 O. In a weakly acidic condition, fairly concentrated (35%) H 2 O 2 solution undergoes a rapid oxidative reaction with no competitive reduction reaction of HClO 2 to form HOCl. HClO 2 ...

  4. High-test peroxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-test_peroxide

    For example, 98% hydrogen peroxide is more stable than 70% hydrogen peroxide. Water acts as a contaminant, and the higher the water concentration the less stable the peroxide is. The storability of peroxide is dependent on the surface-to-volume ratio of the materials the fluid is in contact with.

  5. Elephant's toothpaste - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elephant's_toothpaste

    Elephant toothpaste reaction Two people watching the reaction of Elephant's toothpaste. Elephant's toothpaste is a foamy substance caused by the quick decomposition of hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2) using potassium iodide (KI) or yeast and warm water as a catalyst. [1] How rapidly the reaction proceeds will depend on the concentration of hydrogen ...

  6. Heat of dilution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_of_dilution

    The heat of dilution can be defined from two perspectives: the differential heat and the integral heat. The differential heat of dilution is viewed on a micro scale, which is associated with the process in which a small amount of solvent is added to a large quantity of solution. The molar differential heat of dilution is thus defined as the enthalpy

  7. Electrolysis of water - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrolysis_of_water

    In the case of water electrolysis, Gibbs free energy represents the minimum work necessary for the reaction to proceed, and the reaction enthalpy is the amount of energy (both work and heat) that has to be provided so the reaction products are at the same temperature as the reactant (i.e. standard temperature for the values given above ...

  8. Vaporized hydrogen peroxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vaporized_hydrogen_peroxide

    VHP is produced from a solution of liquid H 2 O 2 and water, by generators specifically designed for the purpose. These generators initially dehumidify the ambient air, then produce VHP by passing aqueous hydrogen peroxide over a vaporizer, and circulate the vapor at a programmed concentration in the air, typically from 140 ppm to 1400 ppm, depending on the infectious agent to be cleared.

  9. Sodium dichloroisocyanurate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_dichloroisocyanurate

    The overall reaction is: CuSO 4 + 4 Na(C 3 N 3 O 3 Cl 2) → Na 2 [Cu(C 3 N 3 O 3 Cl 2) 4] + Na 2 SO 4. Sodium dichloroisocyanurate reacts with concentrated (130 vol, 35%) hydrogen peroxide to create singlet oxygen which emits red light upon decomposition . [2] It is considered hazardous according to OSHA 29 CFR 1910.1200.
