Curated OER
Hydrogen Peroxide Analysis
A scenario is presented for chemistry techs to address. Using titration techniques, they must analyze hydrogen peroxide solution samples. They evaluate accuracy and precision in the process. They also gain experience consulting the MSDS...
Curated OER
Catalysts and Enzymes
Biochemists experiment with the oxothermic decomposition of hydrogen dioxide by adding manganese dioxide. They observe how pepsin enhances the action of acid on the digestion of egg white proteins. They use yeast to make bread rise. All...
Curated OER
Rate of Decomposition of Hydrogen Peroxide
Students devise an experiment to test the rate of decomposition of hydrogen peroxide. In this rate of reactions lesson plan, students use the given information in the lab to write a procedure that will allow them to find the rate of...
Curated OER
H2O2 Decomposition Lab II
Young scholars conduct an oxidation experiment in which they must determine how much hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is actually in a store-bought solution of H2O2.
Curated OER
Enzyme Activity: An Inquiry Based Approach
Using an inquiry approach to studying biochemical reactions, cooperative teams of high schoolers investigate hypotheses about living materials that contain enzymes which break down in hydrogen peroxide. They perform experiments,...
Curated OER
H2O2 Decomposition Lab I
Pupils conduct an experiment to determine how much hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is actually in a store-bought solution of H2O2.
