The decomposition of hydrogen peroxide can be used very effectively to show the effrect of adding a catalyst such as manganese dioxide. Following the clip discuss some of the features of a catalyst eg ...

Hydrogen peroxide decomposes on its own into water and oxygen gas. This process is sped up by a catalyst. In this reaction, the catalyst is potassium permanganate, and the bubbles are full of oxygen ...

The reaction of hydrogen peroxide with potassium iodide is demonstrated in a tall cylinder. Saturated potassium iodide is added to a mixture of soap, glycerin, water, and hydrogen peroxide. Oxygen and ...

Catalysis of the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide is demonstrated in a foil-covered florence flask or fancy bottle. A packet of manganese dioxide catalyst is suspended by a thread inside the neck of ...

These experiments were carried out with rather high concentrations of hydrogen peroxide.

Given enough time, the decomposition of peroxide will happen all by itself. To be useful in a jet pack, this reaction has to ... the example above of dripping hydrogen peroxide onto a pile of ...

Hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) plays key roles in aquatic systems, including metal redox cycling and degradation of organic matter into bioavailable forms. Abiotic photoproduction, via photo-oxidation of ...

Some chemical reactions change temperature, change color, produce a gas, or make a solid from two liquids. Try this reaction and see what it does! Pour 1 tablespoon of hydrogen peroxide into a cup.

Having the right balance of these factors makes for a successful compost pile, and it just so happens, that when hydrogen ...
