Hydrogen peroxide, H2O2, is a moderately strong oxidizing agent; it even

slowly oxidizes water. Its reactions tend to occur via radical paths, but it is

easy to understand the reactivity if you imagine the HOOH to split into OH-

and OH+; the OH+ would of course be the oxidizing agent, as it desperately

needs electrons. Its reactivity increases if the peroxy (OOH) part of the molecule

is linked to an electron withdrawing group, as in peroxyacids    !!!!
