Catalysts speed up chemical reactions by lowering the activation energy required for the reaction to occur, without being consumed in the process; in the case of hydrogen peroxide, a catalyst causes rapid decomposition into water and oxygen gas by reducing the energy barrier that would otherwise slow down the natural decomposition reaction.

Why Does Hydrogen Peroxide Bubble So Fast? ๐คฏ #Science #Experiment #Catalyst #STEM #educationAdded:
All right, here we go. That is incredible. As you can see the catalyst caused the rapid decomposition of the hydrogen peroxide. The hydrogen peroxide reacted because we introduced a catalyst. The catalyst lowers the activation energy causing the rapid decomposition and release of oxygen gas.
>> So adding a catalyst doesn't directly decompose the hydrogen peroxide. It simply speeds up a decomposition reaction that would already occur naturally.
