    Elephant Toothpaste Science. The main reactor in this experiment is 3% Hydrogen Peroxide a liquid made from hydrogen atoms and oxygen atoms (chemical formula H 2 O 2), which is used in first aid as an antiseptic.Normally it comes in a dark bottle because H 2 O 2 or hydrogen peroxide breaks down in light, turning into oxygen (O 2) and water (H 2 O). Normally this reaction happens very slowly ...
