The Formation of Hydrogen Peroxide by the Effect of Iodine on Water (Obrazovanie Perekisi Vodoroda Deistviem Ioda na Vodu),
Abstract
The authors show that hydrogen peroxide can be generated from water without the use of light or free oxygen. All that is needed is a compound having the correct oxidation reduction potential. Iodine is used to show that in fact hydrogen peroxide can be produced: H2O + I2 = HI + HIO followed by HIO + H2O + HI + H2O2.
