When a piece of liver is dropped into hydrogen peroxide, the peroxide bubbles vigorously as the hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) decomposes into water (H20) and oxygen (02). This rapid change in reaction rate suggests that that liver contains lots of toxins. that liver is a substrate for hydrogen peroxide. the liver can be damaged by hydrogen peroxide. the liver contains an enzyme that breaks down hydrogen peroxide.

Evaporation of sweat requires energy and thus take excess heat away from the body. Some of the water that you drink may eventually be converted into sweat and evaporate. If you drink a 20-ounce bottle of water that had been inthe refrigerator at 3.8 °C, how much heat is needed to convert all of that water into sweat and then to vapor?? (Note: Your body temperature is 36.6 °C. For the purpose of solving this problem, assume that the thermal properties of sweat are the same as for water.)
