When the three chemicals are combined it creates a foam like substance which expands. This is a common experiment and can be easily created in your own house or in a science laboratory. It is often referred to as Elephants Toothpaste.

When you add catalase to hydrogen peroxide what happens?

Catalase is an enzyme that catalyzes the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen gas. This reaction helps to break down harmful hydrogen peroxide into harmless water and oxygen.


What happens when you combine hydrogen and oxygen?

dihydrogen oxide, hydronium ion, Hydroperoxyl and Hydrogen peroxide


What happens when hydrogen peroxide reacts with yeast?

When hydrogen peroxide reacts with yeast, an enzyme called catalase in the yeast breaks down the hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen gas. This reaction is exothermic and produces bubbles of oxygen gas as a byproduct.


What happens when mix hydrogen peroxide and carbon dioxide?

3h2+co___ch4+h2o


What happens when hydrogen peroxide and acetone react together?

When hydrogen peroxide and acetone react together, they can form a highly explosive compound called acetone peroxide. This compound is unstable and can detonate easily, making it very dangerous to handle.


What happens if you add another atom of oxygen to a molecule of water?

H2O2 is the hydrogen peroxide.


What happens when chlorine and hydrogen peroxide react with each other?

When chlorine and hydrogen peroxide react, they form hydrochloric acid and oxygen gas. This reaction is exothermic, meaning it releases heat energy.


What happens when hydrogen peroxide and vinegar react together?

When hydrogen peroxide and vinegar react together, they produce oxygen gas and water as byproducts. This reaction is exothermic, meaning it releases heat energy.


What happens when you mix hydrogen peroxide and iodine and sugar?

Hydrogen peroxide is a toxic substance that is sometimes made in our cells due to some chemical reactions. It is poisonous so cells produce an enzyme called 'Catalase' which break down hydrogen peroxide to water and oxygen. Because catalase is in our blood, if hydrogen peroxide is added to it, it breaks down: Blood + H2 O2(hydrogen peroxide) --changes to-- H2O (water) + O2 (oxygen).


What happens if you put an orange seed in hydrogen peroxide?

it helps the seed grow faster or enhancer


What happens when crushed potato was added to hydrogen peroxide?

When crushed potato is added to hydrogen peroxide, the enzyme catalase in the potato catalyzes the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen gas. This reaction produces bubbling or foaming as the oxygen gas is released.


What happens when manganese dioxide is added to hydrogen peroxide and why was manganese dioxide added to the test tube containing hydrogen peroxide?

When manganese dioxide is added to hydrogen peroxide, it acts as a catalyst, increasing the rate of the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen gas. Manganese dioxide was added to the test tube containing hydrogen peroxide to catalyze the reaction and speed up the decomposition process.
