A suitable stabiliser may be added.<\/p>\n<h2>CHARACTERS<\/h2>\n<h3>Appearance<\/h3>\n<p>Colourless, clear liquid.<\/p>\n<h2>IDENTIFICATION<\/h2>\n<p>A. To 2 mL, add 0.2 mL of dilute sulfuric acid R and 0.2 mL of 0.02 M potassium permanganate. The solution becomes colourless or slightly pink within 2 min.<\/p>\n<p>B. To 1 mL, add 0.1 mL of dilute hydrochloric acid R and 0.1 mL of potassium iodide solution R. A brown colour appears.<\/p>\n<p>Black particles may be formed.<\/p>\n<p>C. It complies with the requirement for the content of H2O2.<\/p>\n<h2>TESTS<\/h2>\n<h3>Acidity<\/h3>\n<p>Hydrogen Peroxide Solution (3 per cent)<\/p>\n<p>To 10 mL, add 20 mL of water R and 0.25 mL of methyl red solution R. Not less than 0.05 mL and not more than 1.0 mL of 0.1 M sodium hydroxide is required to change the colour of the indicator.<\/p>\n<h3>Organic stabilisers<\/h3>\n<p>Maximum 250 ppm.<\/p>\n<p>Shake 20 mL with 10 mL of chloroform R and then with 2 quantities, each of 5 mL, of chloroform R. Evaporate the combined chloroform layers under reduced pressure at a temperature not exceeding 25 \u00b0C and dry in a desiccator. The residue weighs a maximum of 5 mg.<\/p>\n<h3>Non-volatile residue<\/h3>\n<p>Maximum 2 g\/L.<\/p>\n<p>Allow 10 mL to stand in a platinum dish until all effervescence has ceased. Evaporate to dryness on a water-bath and dry at 100-105 \u00b0C. The residue weighs a maximum of 20 mg.<\/p>\n<h2>ASSAY<\/h2>\n<p>Dilute 10.0 g to 100.0 mL with water R. To 10.0 mL of this solution add 20 mL of dilute sulfuric acid R. Titrate with 0.02 M potassium permanganate until a pink colour is obtained.<\/p>\n<p>1 mL of 0.02 M potassium permanganate is equivalent to 1.701 mg of H<sub>2<\/sub>O<sub>2<\/sub> or 0.56 mL of oxygen.<\/p>\n<h2>STORAGE<\/h2>\n<p>Protected from light, and if the solution does not contain a stabiliser, at a temperature below 15 \u00b0C.<\/p>\n<h2>LABELLING<\/h2>\n<p>If the solution contains a stabiliser, the label states that the contents are stabilised. The competent authority may require that the name of the stabiliser be stated on the label.<\/p>\n<h2>CAUTION<\/h2>\n<p>It decomposes in contact with oxidisable organic matter and with certain metals and if allowed to become alkaline.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dilute Hydrogen Peroxide Solution (Ph.
