How does KI catalyze the reaction with H2O2? - Chemistry Stack …
Feb 14, 2023 · Since H2O2 decomposition happens incredibly slowly, the latter seems very unlikely. On the other hand, I can't seem to visualize why an anion would abstract the …
decomposition - Why and how does hydrogen peroxide …
May 27, 2019 · 2 When exposed to UV light, hydrogen peroxide decomposes into $\ce {H2O}$ and $\ce {O}$. Why does this happen and more importantly how? Is the energy from light …
catalysis - What is the "mechanism" of the decomposition of …
Feb 3, 2020 · In my classwork on the decomposition reaction of hydrogen peroxide by catalase, I wrote the following equation: $$\ce {2H2O2 -> 2H2O + O2}$$ However, my teacher said that I …
What is the rate equation of decomposition of H2O2 with catalysts?
Dec 24, 2019 · The decomposition of H2O2 is complex and has been the source of several studies. On iron oxide surface, here is a cited work `Catalytic Decomposition of Hydrogen …
Reaction intermediates of MnO2 catalyzed H2O2 decomposition …
Apr 9, 2018 · Manganese dioxide catalyzes the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide to water and oxygen gas. But what are the intermediates in this catalyzed reaction?
Potassium permanganate and hydrogen peroxide decomposition
The permanganate is a catalyst in the reaction. I am wondering if this decomposition occurs because the initial $\ce {H2O2}$ decomposition reacts with the $\ce {KMnO4}$ and …
Why does NaOH catalyze H2O2 decomposition? [duplicate]
Apr 25, 2016 · So OH- catalyzes decomposition of peroxide, but a maximum is reacted when the amount of hydroxide added is half the amount of peroxide. If more hydroxide than peroxide is …
Would the partial pressure of O2 in the system affect the rate of …
Sep 21, 2023 · In my Bio 1 lab we studied the way catalase catalyzes the decomposition of H2O2 and at the end it asked me what conditions would affect the rate of the reaction. It was the type …
physical chemistry - Disproportionation of hydrogen peroxide ...
Feb 25, 2018 · However, if you just keep H2O2 by itself, without any oxygen, it will still decompose. This isn't captured by your proposed pair of half-equations, which essentially says …
Calculate the rate of decomposition of H2O2 at 25 °C when …
Jun 14, 2016 · Yes. Your calculation of k is quite right. so if, for example, the rate was r = (-2)* (d [H2O2]/dt), would rate of decomposition be (1/2)*r? am I understanding this relationship …
