Chemical Reaction Lab

The chemical formula for hydrogen peroxide is H₂O₂.  Hydrogen peroxide is not a very stable compound, so, it is always decomposing to water and oxygen, but under normal conditions, the decomposition goes very slowly.  In this chemical reaction, yeast catalyzes the decomposition, making the reaction go much more quickly.  If you add a little dishwashing detergent, you get foam!  If you add food coloring, you get colored foam!
