Analyzing a Hydrogen Peroxide Solution Purpose: The technological purpose of this investigation is to test and evaluate the percent concentration of consumer solution of hydrogen peroxide. Problem: What is the percent concentration of hydrogen peroxide in a consumer product? Design: An acidic solution of primary standard‚ iron (II) ammonium sulfate-water (1/6)‚ is prepared and the potassium permanganate standard. A 25.0 mL sample of a consumer solution of hydrogen peroxide is diluted to 1

Determination of the Enthalpy for Decomposition of Hydrogen Peroxide Objective: To construct a coffee cup calorimeter‚ measure its calorimeter constant‚ and determine the enthalpy of decomposition and formation of hydrogen peroxide. Background: This experiment is a classic thermodynamics lab. In it‚ we attempt to measure the enthalpy (H) of a chemical reaction. The main obstacle is that this is a quantity that cannot be measured directly. It instead is observed as heat from one substance is transferred
Free Thermodynamics Energy Hydrogen peroxide
First recognized as a chemical compound in 1818‚ hydrogen peroxide is a clear‚ colorless liquid most often used for cleaning or disinfecting(Britannica‚ 2013). Since pure hydrogen peroxide is unstable‚ it is found in stores as an aqueous solution. The chemical formula for hydrogen peroxide is H₂O₂ which means there are two hydrogen atoms and two oxygen atoms in the compound(Liebeskind‚ 2013). Seed germination is simply the process in which a seedling sprouts from a seed and begins it’s growth. The

Chemistry Catalyst Report Aim I am trying to investigate the effect of the mass of magnesium dioxide used on the speed of the reaction of 2H2O2(aq) 2H2O(l) + O2(g). I hypothesize that the speed of the reaction is proportional to the rate of decomposition. Independent Variable The mass of MnO2 used Dependent Variable The rate of decomposition through the amount of mass lost Controlled Variables Environment of the experiment Stay in the same place to carry out the experiment and finish the

"To See What Factors Affect The Decomposition Of Hydrogen Peroxide By The Enzyme Catalase Which Is Found In The Liver" Introduction: Enzymes are biological catalysts. They speed up the chemical reactions which go on inside living things. Without them the reactions would be so slow that life would grind to a halt. Enzymes work by when a substrate molecule bumps into a molecule of the right enzyme‚ it fits into a depression on the surface of the enzyme molecule. This depression is called the

key theory as only one enzyme can carry out one type of reaction. The catalase enzyme speeds up the breakdown of hydrogen peroxide into oxygen and water. The hydrogen peroxide molecule acts as the substrate molecule and enters the active site where it is broke down into oxygen and water. The oxygen and water then leave the active site. Catalase enzyme Hydrogen peroxide (toxic) oxygen + water In the investigation I am doing‚ these are the

this experiment was to determine the speed at which a reaction took place between an iodine and hydrogen peroxide solution. In addition to a change in concentration‚ a change in temperature and a catalyst variable was also introduced to conclude whether or not their presence affected the overall speed of the reaction. In order to determine the effects of these variables‚ several iodine and hydrogen peroxide reactions were prepared‚ (all at varying temperatures‚ volumes‚ and concentrations)‚ and reacted

hydrochloric acid In the lab‚ zinc granules react fairly slowly with dilute hydrochloric acid‚ but much faster if the acid is concentrated. The catalytic decomposition of hydrogen peroxide Solid manganese(IV) oxide is often used as a catalyst in this reaction. Oxygen is given off much faster if the hydrogen peroxide is concentrated than if it is dilute. The reaction between sodium thiosulphate solution and hydrochloric acid This is a
