| x Dinitrogen tetroxide |
|
Dinitrogen tetroxide (nitrogen tetroxide or nitrogen peroxide) is the chemical compound N2O4. It forms an equilibrium mixture with nitrogen dioxide; some call this mixture dinitrogen tetroxide, some call it nitrogen dioxide. Dinitrogen tetroxide is...

| x Hydrogen peroxide |
|
Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is a very pale blue liquid, slightly more viscous than water, that appears colorless in dilute solution. It is a weak acid, has strong oxidizing properties, and is a powerful bleaching agent. It is used as a disinfectant,...

| x Nitric acid |
|
Nitric acid (HNO3), also known as aqua fortis and spirit of nitre, is a highly corrosive and toxic strong acid.
Colorless when pure, older samples tend to acquire a stronger yellow cast due to the accumulation of oxides of nitrogen. If the solution...

| x Chlorine pentafluoride |
|
Chlorine pentafluoride has formula ClF5. It was first synthesized in 1963.
Its square pyramidal structure with C4v symmetry was confirmed by its high resolutionF NMR spectrum.
Initially, a common method for synthesis of this hypervalent molecule was...
|
| x Fluorine |
|
Fluorine is the chemical element with atomic number 9, represented by the symbol F. Fluorine forms a single bond with itself in elemental form, resulting in the diatomic F2 molecule. F2 is a supremely reactive, poisonous, pale, yellowish brown gas....

| x Red fuming nitric acid |
Red fuming nitric acid (RFNA) is a storable oxidizer used as a rocket propellant. It consists mainly of nitric acid (HNO3), also containing 13% dinitrogen tetroxide and 3% water. The color of the resulting red fuming nitric acid is due to the...
