Cody's lab making of H2O2, does somebody know this ?


A rather weird process: making H2O2 wit some exotic compounds....

Yeah.

When i first started i imagined you could just bubble air into water.

Doesn't work.

The pathways to H2O2 are hideously non-trivial.

Meh.

Muricans speak Murican.

It's not English anymore, same as English isn't Celt/Latin/Germanic/French anymore.

Aloominum is how Al is pronounced, apparently.

"Dey tuk ar johs !" is still a linguistic mystery.

Edit:

A breakthough: https://youtu.be/DEiWU1MbBfk?t=5

If you are in Australia then a source of hydrogen peroxide, and hydroquinone, is Bombardier beetles;

Except the hydrogen peroxide oxidizes the hydroquinone to p-benzoquinone, or what I like to call 'bastard hell crystals'

I assume that a little surgery would be required for each beetle to separate the two before extraction.
but I have no beetle-ass surgery experience so I could be wrong.

I've always wanted someone to try making Hydrogen peroxide from Barium Oxide -> peroxide, etc. Not a real fan of Barium compounds but the reaction was in my old chem textbook and it seemed interesting enough.
