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 ...

A close-up view captures the reaction between hydrogen peroxide and blood, revealing the bubbling effect caused by oxygen release. This simple demonstration highlights how the compound interacts with ...

Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is used to disinfect minor cuts at home and for oxidative reactions in industrial manufacturing. The pandemic has further fueled demand for its antiseptic properties, but H2O2 ...

Hydrogen peroxide fuel cells harness the reversible redox chemistry of H₂O₂ to generate electrical energy in compact, liquid‐fed architectures. At the heart of these devices lies the interplay between ...
