Caro's acid

Peroxymonosulfuric acid (H2SO5), commonly known as Caro's acid, is an exceptionally strong oxidising agent formed by the reaction of sulfuric acid and hydrogen peroxide. Its highly reactive nature makes it effective in decomposing organic matter, playing a crucial role in the aggressive cleaning mechanism of Piranha Solution by generating oxygen radicals.
