Hydrazine (H2NNH2), hydrogen peroxide (HOOH), and water (H2O) all have exceptionally high surface tensions compared with other
Question:
(a) Draw the Lewis structures for these three compounds.
(b)What structural property do these substances have in common, and how might that account for the high surface tensions?

Hydrogen peroxide can be used as a mild antiseptic to curb superficial skin infections such as athlete’s foot, but only in diluted quantities. To combat stinky feet, try soaking your feet in a solution of 1 part 3% hydrogen peroxide and 3 parts warm water for 15-20 minutes, then drying them thoroughly. This will kill odor-causing bacteria and soften your feet. To treat athlete\'s foot, you can use a similar solution, but only in diluted quantities, and soak your feet for 30 minutes. Hydrogen peroxide can also be used to keep vegetables fresh by adding 1/4 cup to a bowl of cold water, soaking the vegetables for 20-30 minutes, then draining, drying, and refrigerating them. Alternatively, you can spray vegetables with a solution of 3% hydrogen peroxide and let them stand for a few minutes before rinsing and drying. To keep leftover salad fresh, spray it with a solution of 1/2 cup water and 1 Tbsp. 3% hydrogen peroxide, drain, cover, and refrigerate.
