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 |
|

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 |

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 |

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. |

Water is formed when two hydrogen atoms chemically react with
one oxygen atom to form H2O (see diagram below). | | | 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 |
