Information

Yeast is acted as a catalyst (a catalyst makes the reaction speed up). The yeast quickly breaks up the oxygen from the hydrogen peroxide, because the yeast did this very fast there will be bubbles, and then foam. The foam comes because of the liquid soap.

Liquid Soap - The liquid soap, starts with a simple chemical reaction between oils and an alkali. With liquid soaps, the chemical reaction takes place with potassium hydroxide, which is a specific type of lye for liquid soap.

Yeast - Yeast is a single-cell organism, which needs food, warmth, and moisture to thrive. It converts its food (sugar and starch) through fermentation, into carbon dioxide and alcohol.

Hydrogen Peroxide - Hydrogen peroxide is a weakly acidic, colourless liquid, it is the simplest peroxide (molecules containing two oxygen atoms covalently bonded to one another) and is commercially available in aqueous solutions over a wide concentration range
