hydrogen peroxide to sand. Due to the fact that the sand was not soluble in the hydrogen peroxide‚ no reaction thus no catalyst were present. Manganese dioxide was also added to the hydrogen peroxide creating a moderately fast reaction thus leading to believe that an enzyme was present to lower the activation energy and speed up the reaction. When the manganese dioxide was added to the hydrogen peroxide it catalyzes and breaks down the hydrogen peroxide and oxygen gas thus creating a decomposition reaction

energy‚ this is a theory of collision theory. For example‚ in the first experiment‚ the test tube filled with 10 mL of 3% hydrogen peroxide and had scoop of manganese dioxide‚ had a greater reaction than the other test tube. Which simply contained 10 mL of 3% hydrogen peroxide. The factor that affected the reaction rate was that the manganese was seen as a catalyst. The reason collision theory relates to this experiment is due to the fact that the catalyst creates a higher activation energy and this

40 Common Minerals and Their Uses Aluminum The most abundant metal element in Earth’s crust. Aluminum originates as an oxide called alumina. Bauxite ore is the main source of aluminum and must be imported from Jamaica‚ Guinea‚ Brazil‚ Guyana‚ etc. Used in transportation (automobiles)‚ packaging‚ building/construction‚ electrical‚ machinery and other uses. The U.S. was 100 percent import reliant for its aluminum in 2012. Barium A heavy metal contained in barite. Used as a heavy additive in oil

Manganese dioxide (MnO2) was added to the test tube containing hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). Why was this added? The MnO2 acts like a Catalyst in H2O2 speeding up the breakdown. What can be the manganese dioxide be called when it is used for this purpose? Catalyst 2. What color did the litmus paper turn to when you tested tap water? Red Make

analysis. I. INTRODUCTION Low carbon steels containing <0.15% carbon and <0.6% manganese generally have good weldability‚ as the composition is too lean to give any significant hardening effect during welding. However‚ steels with <0.12% carbon and low levels of manganese can lead to porosity‚ although they are not affected to hydrogen cracking. Steels with carbon contents between 0.15 and 0.3% carbon and up to 0.9% manganese‚ have good weldability‚ basically those with carbon content below 0.22%. These

I will be using Hydrochloric acid‚ mossy zinc‚ Bromothymol blue‚ limewater‚ Manganese‚ and Alka Seltzer‚ to test different properties of gases formed by chemical reactions. In order to extract the gas I will use several household products such as vinegar‚ baking soda‚ water‚ and hydrogen peroxide in order to create the gases to

Have you ever been skeptical about what you eat everyday is not essential as you think? You may doubt that what am I talking about. I am going to talk about something that you eat everyday. Guess what? That is rice! Recently‚ my mother decided to choose brown rice instead of white rice as our food staple. This raises my attention about white rice. At present‚ half the world’s population sees rice as their staple food‚ mainly in parts of Asia‚ southern Europe‚ tropical America and Africa. Among the

Brown rice vs. White rice: Which is better? Rice is considered a staple diet all over the world. With over billions of people consuming it daily‚ the question remains which is better out of these two? We all know or must have heard that brown rice is healthier as compared to white rice. Now‚ let us read about it in detail as to how brown rice is healthier? But before that‚ let us clarify the physical difference between these two rice. Physical appearance: 1.
