    This document outlines an experiment to study the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide catalyzed by manganese dioxide. The experiment measures the volume of oxygen gas produced over time using different amounts of catalyst to determine the reaction rate constant. The decomposition is an exothermic reaction that produces oxygen gas and water vapor, and increasing the catalyst amount increases the reaction rate.

    Purpose:
     To Calculate rate constant k
     Investigation of the effect of the increasing of the
    amount of catalyst on decomposition of hydrogen
    peroxide.
     To understand that a catalyst can be used to
    increase a rate of reaction.
    Theory
     
    The decomposition of hydrogen peroxide into oxygen gas
    and water vapor . The decomposition is catalyzed by
    manganese dioxide (), which is not changed during the
    reaction. It is an exothermic reaction and will evolve a lot
    of heat. The special effects in this demonstration are due
    to a “fog” produced by the condensation of water
    droplets in the steam and oxygen gas mixture.
    Theory
     The decomposition of hydrogen peroxide releases a
    large amount of heat into the surrounding
    environment.
     Hydrogen peroxide in water has a tendency to
    decompose in water and oxygen, because the reaction
    products are more stable than the hydrogen peroxide
    itself.
     Decomposition is strongly affected by light and
    catalysts as catalase, metal oxides and activated
    carbon.
     The most promising technique is heterogeneous
    catalysis. Common catalysts include manganese oxide,
    silver, platinum and activated carbon.
    Theory
    The kinetic study of this reaction is possible by
    measuring volume (ml) of the liberated oxygen gas and
    it is considered first order reaction:

    V∞ = total volume of liberated oxygen in the end of reaction and


    it is equal the initial concentration (a) in the beginning of
    reaction.
    Vt = volume of liberated oxygen with the time
    K= decomposition rate constant.
    Chemicals:

    1- ٪2 H2O2
    2- D.W
    3- MnO2
    Procedure:
    1. Put (0.05g) MnO2 and (15ml) from (1%) H2O2 in the
    conical (A) and close it immediately, connect it by
    rubber tube to the burette and opening time directly.
    2. Read (Vt) from burette every (10 sec) nearly (10)
    values .
    3. Immerse conical(A) in water bath at (40°C) for
    (15min).
    4. Put conical(A) at room temperature for (2 min) then
    record V∞ .
    5. Repeat a above steps by taking (0.02g) MnO2.
    Calculation:
    Ln(V∞-Vt ) V∞ -Vt ≡ (a-x) Vt ≡ x Time (Sec)
