Hydrogen Peroxide Concentration Methods

In this video, the presenter sets up a temporary lab to experiment with hydrogen peroxide concentration. The video covers safety precautions, the process of measuring specific gravity, and the effects of heating on concentration. The experiment aims to determine if heating increases the concentration of hydrogen peroxide by reducing water content. The presenter concludes with observations on density changes and the limitations of the method used.
