Solution
The correct option is BMnO2 The given reaction is a decomposition reaction of hydrogen peroxide giving out water and oxygen. Manganese dioxide is a positive catalyst here. A positive catalyst increases the rate of the reaction without itself undergoing any chemical change. Therefore, the component which will be left after the completion of the reaction is manganese dioxide.
