Reaction kinetics — practice question

In the diagram, curve X was produced by monitoring the decomposition of $100\,\text{cm}^3$ of $1.0\,\text{mol dm}^{-3}$ hydrogen peroxide, with manganese(IV) oxide acting as the catalyst. Which change to the starting experimental conditions would result in curve Y?

  • Aadding some $0.1\,\text{mol dm}^{-3}$ hydrogen peroxide
  • Badding water
  • Clowering the temperature
  • Dusing less manganese(IV) oxide
