Planning Catalase is a biological catalyst that breaks down Hydrogen Peroxide (H2O2) into Water (H2O) and Oxygen (O2). Below is the reaction that takes place: - Hydrogen Peroxide Oxygen + Water H2O2 O2 + 2H2O Reactions can be speeded up through the use of a Catalyst, this is a substance which changes the rate of a reaction but is not actually used up so they can be re-used; in this case we will use Catalase. Catalase is an enzyme, which is found in living things such as yeast and liver, the enzyme is used in the cells to remove Hydrogen Peroxide which is a waste product made by all cells, H2O2 is very toxic and so breaking it down quickly is very important. How does Catalase work? All enzymes work in
