When hydrogen peroxide bubbles, it is undergoing a chemical change. Which statement best describes what is happening? The atoms in hydrogen peroxide are breaking apart and forming new types of molecules. Four students are analyzing four different substances and recording their findings in this table.
The dark bottle protects the hydrogen peroxide inside from light. If it were in a clear bottle, the compound would decompose into water and oxygen. Hydrogen peroxide and other compounds can also be altered by heat, so we see that a reaction to heat is another chemical property of compounds. One more chemical property worth noting is flammability.
