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...

Make a Halloween pumpkin foam at the mouth! Using hydrogen peroxide, toothpaste, and yeast, you can recreate this chemical reaction in your classroom. It can lead to a discussion of the way ingredients mix together to make a new...

An exothermic reaction is demonstrated by showing what happens when hydrogen peroxide reacts with manganese dioxide. It creates the effect used by film makers to have a genie coming out of a bottle in a burst of cloudy gas. Spangler is...

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...

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...

In honor of the 4th of July, Steve Spangler shows how to make an explosive concoction in red, white, and blue. Using hydrogen peroxide, dishwashing liquid, and yeast, he creates a colorful chemical reaction. Consider this combination...

High schoolers conduct an oxidation experiment in which they must determine how much hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is actually in a store-bought solution of H2O2.

Using an inquiry approach to studying biochemical reactions, cooperative teams of learners investigate hypotheses about living materials that contain enzymes which break down in hydrogen peroxide. They perform experiments, practice...

Young scholars conduct an experiment to determine how much hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is actually in a store-bought solution of H2O2.
