Abstract

The decomposition of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is a vital concept in various engineering and environmental procedures. Catalysts such as MnO2, PbO2, and Fe2O3 can significantly influence the rate of reactions; temperature also plays a vital role in the effectiveness of these catalysts. This paper will explore the question of “How does the presence of different catalysts [MnO2, PbO2, Fe2O3] affect the rate of decomposition of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) at various temperatures (30°C, 60°C, 90°C) under controlled laboratory conditions”. By investigating the impact of different catalysts (MnO2, PbO2, Fe2O3) on the decomposition rate of hydrogen peroxide at various temperatures (30°C, 60°C, 90°C), this paper aims to provide insights into optimizing this reaction for practical applications in fields of chemical and mechanical engineering. Optimizing industrial reactions to improve efficiency, reduce costs, and minimize environmental impact. Understanding how different catalysts and temperatures affect the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide will help in designing more efficient catalytic processes and further expand my interest in chemical and mechanical engineering. The research and experimentation of these reactions allow me to further gain an understanding of my future profession in the optimization of reactions in my field of study.
