Answer:

Increases

Step-by-step explanation:

When a catalyst is added to hydrogen peroxide,the rate of decomposition Increases.

In living organisms, hydrogen peroxide is gotten through metabolism and it has to be broken down. This is because it could become toxic if it gets to be concentrated.

We can increase the rate of decomposition reaction through the addition of a catalyst. This breaks it down into hydrogen and water
