Making Oxygen Hydrogen Peroxide

The method of making oxygen from hydrogen peroxide is different for those who seek oxygen in ancient times. The method of making oxygen from hydrogen peroxide is described here.

Prepare hydrogen peroxide solution and manganese dioxide, take a clean conical bottle, put an appropriate amount of manganese dioxide in it. Slowly inject the hydrogen peroxide solution into a long-necked funnel, and the liquid encounters manganese dioxide, that is, there are bubbles, which is the appearance of oxygen escaping.

Look at it, the bubbles come out in a row, if boiling soup. Cover hydrogen peroxide meets manganese dioxide, and it quickly decomposes into water and oxygen. Manganese dioxide is not a reactant here, but a catalyst, promoting the reaction to go quickly, and its own quality and chemistry remain unchanged.

Collect it by drainage and gas collection method. Prepare a gas collecting cylinder full of water, turn it upside down in the water tank, and extend the airway to the mouth of the bottle. Wait for the bubbles to come out continuously and evenly, and start collecting. After a while, the water surface in the bottle gradually drops, and the gas gradually fills up. When a large bubble comes out of the mouth of the bottle, the bottle is full of oxygen.

The method of producing oxygen from hydrogen peroxide is simple and effective, and it is also a good method for seeking oxygen. It has many applications in various experiments and practical places. This is the product of the wisdom of predecessors, and future generations should follow it to study it in order to understand more principles and methods of use.
