In response to "thanks for the b2 h2o2 answers! there’s a guy with a decent-sized following on various platforms who tried to say otherwise when I questioned that " by i.b.!

taking it bit by bit

“There are more hydrogen bonds in peroxide"

Assuming he means hydrogen bonding, true, but so what? That's an influence on H2O2's properties with itself

"and the weaker oxygen bonds makes it more reactive"
True...

"so it doesn’t simply mix with h2o."

bzzzt. It is miscible, meaning it mixes in all proportions (similar to alcohol).

"That’s why you also have varying concentrations of peroxide to dilute it.”

This is a meaningless statement.

You have different concentrations because high concentrations of peroxide are fucking scary and like having a bottle of rocket fuel in your medicine cabinet at full strength.
