This activity is a fun, safe way to teach students the effect a catalyst has on a chemical reaction. The decomposition of hydrogen peroxide can be visualized by mixing in a small amount of dish soap and adding yeast as a catalyst. As the reaction occurs, a large amount of foam is formed that flows up and out of the reaction bottle. This kit contains an Instruction Manual and enough materials to perform the demonstration twice.
Delivery information: Kit includes instructional manual and SDS booklet.
