Hydrogen Peroxide Basic or Acidic

Hydrogen peroxide, its nature of acid and alkali, there are many theories. Or it is acidic, covering it in water, can release protons, and neutralize with bases. If mixed with sodium hydroxide, it can be converted into salt and water.

However, it is also said to be alkaline, because in hydrogen peroxide, oxygen atoms have lone pairs of electrons, which can be combined with protons. Under specific reaction conditions, it shows the sign of alkalinity.

In fact, the acid-base properties of hydrogen peroxide are not static, but vary according to the environment and the reaction with it. In acidic media, its acidic or obvious; in alkaline media, its alkaline sign or clear. Therefore, when it comes to the acid and base of hydrogen peroxide, it is necessary to look at the various conditions of the reaction in order to obtain its certainty.
