  • Slide 5
  • Filling balloons Which gas is more dense? CO 2 Oxygen What is density? Density= Mass/Volume Hydrogen peroxide Test tube Balloon 0.2g of Manganese dioxide Hydrogen peroxide + Manganese dioxide Oxygen
  • Slide 6
  • Carbon dioxide balloon Fill the test tube half way with vinegar Put 3-4 teaspoons of baking soda into a balloon Attach the balloon to the test tube and allow the balloon fill up with gas CO 2
  • Slide 7
  • Oxygen Balloon Very carefully add two 5ml droppers of hydrogen peroxide to a test tube Carefully weigh 0.2-0.3g of manganese dioxide and add it to a balloon Attach the balloon to the test tube and allow the manganese dioxide to fall into the test tube leave for about 8-10mins to allow the balloon to fill Manganese dioxide is a catalyst A catalyst is a substance that speeds up a chemical reaction but does not get used up Oxygen Hydrogen peroxide Test tube Balloon 0.2g of Manganese dioxide Hydrogen peroxide + Manganese dioxide Oxygen
