Learners shows understanding of the following aspects of chemical changes: a. how fast a
reaction takes place
A. Content Standard
b. how much reactants are needed and how much products are formed in a reaction
C. Learning Competencies
1. Define catalyst and describe how it affects reaction rate
(Write the LC Codes for Each)
Content is what the lesson is all about. It pertains to the subject matter that the teacher
aims to teach in the CG, the content can be tackled in a week or two.
II. CONTENT
CATALYST
List the materials to be used in different days. Varied materials sustain children’s interest in
the lesson and in learning. Ensure that there is a mix of concrete and manipulative
III. LEARNING RESOURCES

These steps should be done across the week. Spread out the activities appropriately so that
the students will learn well. Always be guided by demonstration of learning by the students
which you can infer from formative assessment activities. Sustain learning systematically by

providing students with multiple ways to learn new things, practice their learning, question
their learning processes, and draw conclusion about what they learned in relation to their
life experiences and previous knowledge. Indicate the time allotment for each step.

ENGAGE
Show to students two demonstrations and have them look for evidence that a gas is
produced in the chemical reactions.
(Show the video of two demonstrations where water vapor and oxygen gas are
produced in the exact same chemical reaction. Because gases are invisible, ask
students to watch closely for evidence that a gas is produced.)

Group Activity: Mini laboratory experiment.
On each table they will find the activity sheet and the materials for the experiment.
Read the general instruction for the activity. Remind them of the Do’s and Don’ts’ in
the laboratory.

Guide Questions:
and practicing new skills #2
(Group 1)
EXPLORE 1. What clues did you have that a chemical reaction occurred in this activity?
2. What is the catalyst in this activity?
3. What evidence do you have that hydrogen peroxide decomposed faster when you added
yeast?
4. When you write the chemical equation for this reaction, should yeast be included on the
product side of the chemical equation?
E. Developing mastery Now, let the learner explain their answers using the guide question:
EXPLAIN 1. What clues did you have that a chemical reaction occurred in this activity?
ELABORATE
2. What is the catalyst in this activity?
A substance in yeast
3. What evidence do you have that hydrogen peroxide decomposed faster when you added
yeast?
Bubbles of oxygen gas were produced after the yeast was added.
4. When you write the chemical equation for this reaction, should yeast be included on the
product side of the chemical equation?
Catalyst in the yeast does not end up in the products but is a substance
that helps the decomposition happen faster. Sometimes a catalyst is
written above or below the arrow in a chemical equation, but it is never
included with the reactants or products.
In general, catalysts work by providing a place where reactants can come
together to react. Explain to students that cells in yeast and other organisms contain
a catalyst called catalase. Through normal cell processes, living things produce
hydrogen peroxide in their cells. But hydrogen peroxide is a poison so the cells need
a way to break it down very quickly. Cells contain catalase, which breaks down
hydrogen peroxide at a very fast rate. A single molecule of catalase can catalyze the
breakdown of millions of hydrogen peroxide molecules every second.
2. When a catalyst speeds up the rate and increases efficiency of a reaction, what
happens to the energy state of that reaction?
D. It is lowered.
B. Cl2 + KI 2KCl + I2
C. H2O2 H2O2 + O2
D. 3Mg + N2 Mg3N2
EXTEND
V. REMARKS
Reflect on your teaching and assess yourself as a teacher. Think about your students’
progress this week. What works? What else needs to be done to help the students learn?
VI. REFLECTION
Identify what help your instructional supervisor can provide for you so when you meet
them, you can ask them relevant questions.

ACTIVITY SHEET
A Catalyst and the Rate of Reaction
A. Objective
In this activity, you will be find out how a catalyst increase the rate of a chemical reaction but is
not incorporated into the products of the reaction.
Graduated cylinder
Hydrogen peroxide (3%)
Yeast
Popsicle stick
Detergent solution
Dropper
C. Procedure
1. Add 10 mL of hydrogen peroxide to a graduated cylinder. Add 1 drop of detergent solution. Swirl gently and
watch the solution for any bubbling.
2. Use the end of a Popsicle stick to add a small amount of yeast to the hydrogen peroxide in the graduated
cylinder and swirl.
3. Place the graduated cylinder on the table and watch for any bubbling.
4. Hold the graduated cylinder to see if there seems to be any change in temperature.
