Message:


if a piece of potato is added to hydrogen peroxide, the rate of reaction 
increases as the volume of a potato increases.  however, i do not 
understand the science behind this theory.  i have read it in a book, but 
it does not explain what it means at all.  i am confused and even my 
teacher does not know the answer! i have looked EVERYWHERE and i still can 
not find anything! help!  roopal.
