Hydrogen Peroxide

Hydrogen Peroxide is a chemical compound. In its pure form, it is a pale blue, clear liquid, slightly more viscous than water. Hydrogen Peroxide is unstable and slowly decomposes in presence of light. Because of its instability Hydrogen Peroxide is stored with a stabilizer in a weakly acidic solution. It is found in biological systems including Human bodies.
