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).

How does the molecular formula for sucrose compare to maltose?
The molecular formula of sucrose is C12H22O11, while the molecular formula of maltose is C12H22O11. Both molecules have the same number and types of atoms (carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen), but they are arranged differently. Sucrose is a disaccharide made of glucose and fructose, while maltose is a disaccharide made of two glucose molecules.
Why is glucose converted to sucrose before it can be transported away from the leaves?
Sucrose is a more stable form of sugar that is less likely to react with other molecules. This makes it easier to transport through phloem tissue without causing damage to the plant. Additionally, sucrose can be easily broken down back into glucose when needed by the plant.
What does it means that a molecule is activated?
When a molecule is activated, it means that its chemical structure has been altered in a way that makes it more reactive or capable of participating in a chemical reaction. This activation can be achieved through various methods such as adding energy, changing its environment, or adding specific chemical groups.
What advantage do you gain from the fact that bones are hallow?
Having hollow bones makes the skeleton lighter, allowing for easier movement and flight in birds. Additionally, the hollowness provides strength and support without adding unnecessary weight.
What is the function of fructose in plants?
C12H22O11 Sucrose and starch are the end products of photosynthesis. Sucrose, formed in the leaf cytosol, is transported through the phloem to the sink tissues where it is metabolized or stored in the vacuole. During the night, sucrose is formed from starch, produced and stored in the chloroplasts during the day.
Why when adding catalase and hydrogen peroxide into a tube makes it bubble?
Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) reacts naturally in air to form oxygen and water. 2H2O2 > 2H2O + O2 Catalase is an enzyme found in most organisms which catalyses this process, so the bubbles you see are oxygen.
What will make soda bubble more?
baking soda makes it bubble it usally makes everything bubble
What will happen if you put glycerin into bubble?
Adding glycerin to a bubble solution increases its viscosity, making the bubbles thicker and stronger. This helps the bubbles last longer and makes them more resistant to popping.
