Molecular representations of hydrogen peroxide | Source: Airdale Group

Hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) is a colorless, slightly viscous liquid with the molecular formula H₂O₂ and a molecular weight of 34.01 g/mol. In pure form it is a pale blue liquid, but at commercial concentrations it appears colorless. It is structurally the simplest peroxide — a compound containing an oxygen–oxygen single bond — and can be described as water with one additional oxygen atom. The molecule is asymmetric and highly polarized, with a strong tendency to form hydrogen bond networks, giving it greater viscosity than water.
