Reaction indicators are specific events that you can observe during a chemical reaction. Some of these indicators are displayed below.
Five Chemical Change Indicators
1) You may observe a flash of light
2) You may observe foaming
3) You may hear a sound
4) An explosion may occur
5) Gas may be released
However, not every chemical reaction includes all of these indicators.
Which choice below occurs in ALL chemical reactions?
a.
temperature increases
c.
new bonds form between atoms
b.
new elements are formed
d.
phase changes from solid to liquid
 

 2. 

When factories release sulfur dioxide (SO2) into the air, it reacts with water (H2O) molecules which results in acidic precipitation (acid rain).

Which choice below BEST describes what happens when SO2 reacts with H2O?
a.
chain reaction occurs
c.
chemical change happens
b.
physical changes appear
d.
nuclear reaction happens
 

 3.

mc003-1.jpg
The ash produced is BEST described as a...?
a.
new type of element.
b.
new state of matter.
c.
substance with properties identical to coal.
d.
substance with properties different from coal.
 

 4.

 5. 

During chemical reactions you can observe specific events called chemical reaction indicators. Some of these indicators are displayed below.
Five Chemical Change Indicators
1) Change in temperature
2) Change in color
3) Change in odor
4) Formation of a precipitate
5) Formation of bubbles (gas is released)
However, not every chemical reaction includes all of these indicators.
Which choice below occurs in ALL chemical reactions?
a.
A loud noise is heard
b.
Heat is given off
c.
A new substance is produced
d.
An explosion occurs
 

 6. 

A science teacher demonstrated physical and chemical changes by using a fork to hold a marshmallow over a lit candle.

Which observation is the
BEST evidence of a chemical change?
a.
The marshmallow developed a brown crust on the outside.
b.
The marshmallow became sticky on the inside.
c.
Metal in the fork became warmer.
d.
Some candle wax melted.
 

 7. 


Copper (Cu) reacts with oxygen (O) to form copper oxide (CuO).
mc007-1.jpg
The properties of CuO (copper oxide) are most likely...?
a.
similar only to copper
b.
different from copper or oxygen
c.
similar only to oxygen
d.
similar to both copper and oxygen
 

 8. 

Due to the number of valence electrons, some elements will chemically react with other elements.
Select the choice shown below that occurs in EVERY chemical reaction.
a.
Phase of matter changes from solid to liquid to gas always occur
b.
Temperature increases, gas is released, and explosions happen.
c.
New types of atoms are created
d.
You start with reactants, end up with product(s), and new substances are formed.
 

 9. 

Water is formed when two hydrogen atoms chemically react with one oxygen atom to form H2O (see diagram below).
mc009-1.jpg
This diagram is displaying an event that occurs in every chemical reaction.
Select the choice below that correctly identifies this event.
a.
powerful explosions occur and precipitates are formed
b.
new types of elements are formed and heat is released
c.
new chemical bonds are formed at the valence electron level
d.
gas is released and the substances change from solids to liquids
