This is very pertinent information for the eventual apocalypse, so I’ll know to prepare by tracking down the nearest Hydrogen Peroxide storage facilities!
In: Chemistry
Hydrogen peroxide slowly splits into water and oxygen gas when exposed to anything that can start the reaction. Even an imperfection in the bottle can speed up the reaction. Bottles of peroxide usually have a small hole at the cap to allow oxygen gas to escape. It is a slow process (45-60) days once the reaction starts. The product is pure or distilled water (unless something was added to the hydrogen peroxide). It’s drinkable but it won’t contain any ions or salts that your body needs.
