Assume that you mix a certain volume of H2O2 solution with solid MnO2, which catalyzes the following reaction: 2 H2O2(aq) = O2(g) + 2 H2O(l). If mixed in a sealed container connected to a pressure gauge, which of the following graphs would you expect to observe upon adding the solid to the solution?
