Catalist for separating hydrogen from water?
Catalysts speed a reaction that would naturally happen. Water does not spontaneously decompose into hydrogen and oxygen - it needs energy input to split. There is no catalyst that can change these facts.
What would likely happen if you were to touch the flask in which an exothermic reaction were occurring?
The flask might feel cool to the touch as the reactants absorb heat conducted through the flask from your body. (This assumes that the reaction is happening at temperatures below your body temperature.)
What effect does temperature have on the reactions occurring in a voltaic cell?
Temperature affects the reactions occurring in a voltaic cell by increasing or decreasing the rate of reaction. Generally, an increase in temperature increases the rate of reaction because the molecules have more kinetic energy and collide more frequently. However, extreme temperatures can also lead to changes in the cell's performance and efficiency.
Is a double displacement reaction hydrogen bonding?
The double displacement reaction is not related to hydrogen bonding.
What is the difference between a heterogeneous reaction and a homogeneous reaction?
In homogenous reaction all the components/reactants taking part in the reaction form one single phase, with the reaction occurring in the bulk of this system. In heterogeneous reaction all the components/reactants taking part in the reaction are in different phases, with the reaction occurring between the delimiting surface of the components/reactants.
What is produced when hydrogen atoms fuse?
A large amount of energy. This naturally occurring reaction happens inside all stars and is called fusion.
What is the hydrogen to helium reaction that is occurring inside the sun called?
nuclear fission
What is bioluminescene?
Light emitted from living organism as a result of naturally occurring chemical reaction inside the organism.
Where would you find a nuclear fusion reaction naturally ocurring?
Nuclear fusion occurs naturally in the hearts of stars. To a lesser extent, it can happen in very massive planets (more than, say, 13 times the mass of Jupiter), where temperatures and pressures in the core are sufficient to cause hydrogen and deuterium to fuse.
How is ethylbenzene made?
It can be found naturally occurring in crude oil but is usually manufactured in large amounts when benzene and ethylene are combined in an acid-catylized chemical reaction.

If you have a forward reaction and reverse reaction occurring together what type of reaction is that?
reversible reaction
How is the fusion done using hydrogen in the sun?
Hydrogen-1 is fused into helium-4. This happens at high temperatures - somewhere around 14 million kelvin (which, at such high temperatures, is the same as 14 million degrees Celsius, for all practical purposes). There are two main reaction chains that in stars: the proton-proton chain reaction, and the CNO cycle. I suggest you read the corresponding Wikipedia articles, if you want more details about each of the reaction chains. Anyway, in our Sun, the predominant reaction chain is the proton-proton chain reaction.
What would likely happen if you were to touch the flask in which an exothermic reaction were occurring?
The flask might feel cool to the touch as the reactants absorb heat conducted through the flask from your body. (This assumes that the reaction is happening at temperatures below your body temperature.)
Can a combustion reaction produce hydrogen?
No. If anything, a combustion reaction will consume hydrogen.
Is hydrogen a combustion reaction?
Hydrogen is an element, not a reaction. However, it is very combustible.
