Hydrogen Peroxide
« on: January 10, 2007, 03:35:31 AM »
Hey guys, can you pour a little bit of this stuff on top of your hand (the side with knuckles) and tell me if it bubbles a little bit? I was wondering why mine did.... and if others' did too??? please take this seriously.

2H2O2 = H2O + O2

I know I have seen bubbles in the past when I put it on a scratch, but I did not see it on my knuckles right now. I was not wearing my glasses so I might have missed slight bubbling. I thought I saw some bubbling in the sink, though. I used old stuff so it might be mostly water now.

It depends on how much bacteria is on your skin (assuming this is H2O2 solution - H2O2 decompose easily in glass). Surprisingly, more bacteria is on the surface of the skin after washing (without disinfectant).
