Question

Why is heat not required in the formation of oxygen gas by decomposition of hyrogen peroxide?

Answer 1

Answer:

H2O2 decomposition is highly exothermic (23.44 kcal/mole). ... The effect of temperature is such that an increase of 10 °C increases the rate of decomposition by a factor of 2.3 (i.e., a first order rate equation). Therefore, decomposition can accelerate if the solution becomes grossly contaminated.
