Help with hydrogen peroxide?

Chemistry Individual investigation-HELP- Catalytic decomposition of hydrogen peroxide by inorganic catalysts.?

  • Hello everyone. For My A2, i have received my individual investigation which i have to do. It is the Catalytic decomposition of hydrogen peroxide by inorganic catalysts. hydrogen peroxide decomposes to form water and oxygen: 2H2O2 >>>> 2H20 + O2 (forming water and oxygen) This reaction is catalysed by manganese(IV) oxide. Can i get any info on this reaction and on the rates of reaction. What effect does concentration have on rate. Any defintions.. Anything really Thanks 4ur help :))

  • Answer:

    I think this website has some good diagrams: http://www.chemguide.co.uk/physical/basicrates/concentration.html It's all about how many H2O2 molecules can reach the solid when surrounded in water. The less water there is (i.e. the more concentrated the solution is) the faster the reaction can proceed. I hope this helps.
