Rate of Reaction Investigations Decomposition of Hydrogen Peroxide An aqueous solution of hydrogen peroxide (h202) decomposing very slowly into the water and oxygen. 2H2O2 (aq) 2H2O(l) +O2 (g) Task Hydrogen peroxide decomposes very slowly into water and oxygen. The Manganese (iv) oxide is a catalyst for the reaction. Therefore it speeds up the reaction speeds up the reaction (but is not used up itself). The factors (variables) that affect the speed of this reaction are the concentration of the solution h202. A reaction goes faster when the concentration is increased. The effect of temperature of on a reaction is that, when the reaction is increased so does the speed. The effect of the surface area on the rate of a reaction is that, when the surface area of a solid reaction or catalyst is increase, so does the speed .The Manganese (iv) oxide (catalyst). Catalyst is substance that speed up the rate of reaction. Catalyst are...
