Re: What is the mechanism for decomposition of H2O2 ?



By OH* I meant the OH radical, not the charged ion.

The conditions are room temperature and pressure, in water.

Ok, heat and catalysts may have different pathways, but I'm interested
in its breakdown in pure water - no lasers or molecular beams or
anything fancy. The question is simply, what is going on at the
molecular level so that four OH radicals end up as two H2O and O2.
