EFFECT OF pH H2O2 in a test tube. Immediately insert a glowing wooden splint.  Label three test tubes and mix the substances indicated below:  There is a formation of bubbles, it is the oxygen upon exposure to hydrogen peroxide  It is indication that the catalase is present.  The oxygen gas is rising from the tube. We should test if the bubbles are really oxygen.  Catalase speeds up the decomposition of the  Mix well by shaking each test tube and hydrogen peroxide place in a water bath maintained at producing two harmless body temperature (37C). substances which is the water and the oxygen.  Recording the time at 3-minute intervals, test for the presence of starch using 0.001N iodine solution.
