A substrate is a substance in which an enzyme reacts. The substrate for catalase would be hydrogen peroxide otherwise known as H2O2.

Hydrogen is a substrate of the enzyme catalase?
Peroxide
Would catalase act on chemicals other than hydrogen peroxide?
Catalase is an enzyme and enzymes work best with a specific substrate. The enzyme can work with any substrate just not as efficient .
Why when adding catalase to sucrose not makes it bubble?
Catalase is an enzyme that is substrate-specific, meaning that it has a particular reaction that it will catalyze (to speed up a reaction). Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is the specific substrate reactant with which catalase will react (in a degradation reaction). This is the degradation (breaking down of) reaction. 2H2O2 yields 2H2O+O2 O2 is oxygen which is indicated by the rising of bubbles upon reaction between the hydrogen peroxide and the catalase. Sucrose is not the specific substrate assigned to the catalase enzyme, therefore they will not react together in a degradation reaction, hence the lack of oxygen release (lack of bubbles). I hope this was helpful to you. God bless and Jesus loves you.
What two groups of bacteria can be differentiated with the catalase test?
The morphologically similar Enterococcus (catalase negative) and Staphylococcus (catalase positive) can be differentiated using the catalase test.
What enzyme distinguishes staphylococci from streptococci?
Catalase. Staphylococci are catalase positive. Streptococci are catalase negative.
Hydrogen is a substrate of the enzyme catalase?
Peroxide
What substrate does catalase work on?
Catalase Hydrogen peroxide -----------------> Water + Oxygen.
What is substrate molecule?
Is a molecule upon which an enzyme acts. e.g. hydrogen peroxide is the substrate for the enzyme catalase

What is catalase's substrate in this reaction.2h202 and 2h20 plus 02?
h2o2

What does catalase do to hydrogen peroxide?
Because the shape of the active site on catalase only permits it to break down hydrogen peroxide. This is the case for many enzymes such as catalase, although some enzymes can break down more than one substrate.
Factors effecting catalase rate of reaction?
Temperature, pH, Substrate concentration, Enzyme concentration, Inhibitor concentration (ex. ammonia)
After the enzyme catalyzes the reaction is it changed in any way?
Enzymes that enter a reaction do not change in any way but the substrate does.
How do you test which enzymeproteaseamylaseand catalase will work better in alkaline conditions?
Put them all into separate alkaline conditions and then introduce their respective substrate and observe the reaction.
Is it possible to reuse biomolecules such as catalase?
enzymes keep working ( fit to their corresponding substrate) unless they have been denatured. not really too sure though about all of them.
How would you test to see if catalase could catalyze starch?
Amylase is an enzyme and, like most enzymes, it will denature when exposed to high temperatures. Denature means to lose its shape and an enzyme such as amylase is dependent on its shape to perform its function.
