It is a colourless liquid at room temperature and has a bitter taste. The chemical formula for the compound is H₂O₂. It is usually produced in aqueous solutions of various strengths. The chemical has a slightly pungent, irritating odour. It is also highly soluble in water.

Food grade hydrogen peroxide is often sold as 35% concentration. It may also be found at 12%, although this is quite uncommon.
