I was wondering how that'd actually work, and whether you can get a reasonable yield of H2O2 at lab scale out of it.mysteriusbhoice - 30-12-2019 at 03:53
well 3 problems
H2O2 decomposes when rough catalytic surfaces are present so even a little dirt dust and or anode sludge will make this reaction hard.
High temperatures also prevent fre H2O2 in solution from occuring.
H2SO4 as electrolyte with platinum anode present wont yield H2O2 but a mixture of peroxymono sulfuric acid and peroxy di sulfuric acid and some deadly
ozone gas.
Cody's lab made H2O2 by a reaction of anthraquinone with hydrogen using a palladium catalyst then subsequent reaction of that solution to oxygen which
liberates your peroxide. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mt1itiHT6wUMerryp - 3-1-2020 at 04:12
