How do you explain the formula for elephants tooth paste to sixth graders?
Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), breaks down into water and oxygen. The oxygen created is a gas, so it bubbles out of the liquid. Since there's soap in the mixture for the elephant toothpaste reaction, the bubbles get trapped, making the foam.
Placing hydrogen peroxide on a cut can produce bubbles What causes the bubbles to form on the cut but not on the skin?
The bubbles could be viewed as a sign that the peroxide is "eating" the bacteria. You will notice after a while that fewer and fewer bubbles appear, that is because the bacteria is getting killed.
Can any type of yeast be used for elephant toothpaste?
Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is always decomposing to release oxygen and water, but it does so slowly. In elephant toothpaste, the hydrogen peroxide is mixed with detergent and food color and then saturated iodide solution is added. The iodide acts as a catalyst so that the H2O2 breaks down really quickly. All the gas bubbles released makes the detergent bubble up suddenly.
What happens when you put a apple in peroxide?
Little bubbles form around it...
How do you know that the raw foods contained catalase?
When the catalase comes in contact with hydrogen peroxide, it turns the hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) into water. The bubbles you see in the foam are pure oxygen bubbles being created by the catalase.
Why does bubbling occur when hydrogen peroxide is added to the catalase potato?
The hydrogen peroxide, H2O2 , is being decomposed into water and oxygen gas (the bubbles).
What substance changes during reactions between hydrogen peroxide and liver?
The substance that changes is the hydrogen peroxide. After it reacts, it forms bubbles of oxygen and water.

Why do you not feel warmth when hydrogen peroxide is used on your skin?

What happen when a raw potato is mixed with hydrogen peroxide?
The enzyme is catalase. It can exist without adding hydrogen peroxide. The hydrogen peroxide simply activates the enzyme.
