Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is a clear liquid, slightly more viscous than water. It has strong oxidizing properties and is therefore a powerful bleaching agent that has found use as a disinfectant, as an oxidizer, and in rocketry (particularly in high concentrations as high-test peroxide (HTP) as a monopropellant), and in bipropellant systems.
Hydrogen Peroxide may be found in any drug store.

Hydrogen Peroxide (H2O2) (HOOH)
3% Hydrogen Peroxide at the local grocery store
30% Hydrogen Peroxide through a scientific ordering company
Now, why do you need it?
The 30% is a controlled material. It is rather dangerous to organic matter.

2H2O2 + 2H2SO3 = 2H20 + 2H2SO4. If I knew a way to write lower case numbers on the computer. It would look better. But,I don't. Hydrogen Peroxide can be made using Water (H2O) and Sulfuric Acid (H2SO4). Because, both sides of the formula are balanced.Unless,I counted it wrong.

It is a very commonly available chemical. Very diluted version (3%) is available over the counter at most drug stores and convenience stores. Often used to disinfect shallow wounds. It reacts to exygen in blood and bubbles.... DO NOT use solutions stronger than 3% on your body as it can burn your skin... 10% solution will turn your skin white and will itch badly...

its H2O2, a colorless liquid, decomposes easily releasing oxygen . you can use it as a bleaching agent, an oxidizing and reducing agent, and in a mild solution (about 3 percent) can be used as an antiseptic, germicide and/or cleansing agent. you can buy it at any grocery store/ corner store

It comes in a brown bottle at the drugs store. Usually in the first aid section.

h2o2 is one of the chemicals the terrorists were hoping to smuggle onto british flights to the us to bring 10 or so planes down. if i coulf figure out how to report this question, i'm sure you might be the recipient of a surveilance tap.
