Concept explainers
Interpretation:
Among the given options, the one that is always a characteristic of chemical change has to be chosen.
Concept Introduction:
In matter, changes are familiar and common occurrences. Similar to the properties of matter, changes in matter can also be classified as physical change and chemical change.
Process in which, the physical appearance of the substance changes but not the chemical composition is known as physical change. Some of the examples are melting, freezing, evaporation etc.
Process in which, the chemical composition of the substance changes is known as chemical change. All

- Changes in Matter Practice Problems 1. Identify each of the following as an example of a chemical change or physical change. A. Moisture in the air forms beads of water on a cold windowpane. B. An electric current changes water into hydrogen and oxygen. C, Yeast cells in bread dough may carbon dioxide and ethanol from sugar. D. Olive oil, vinegar, salt, and pepper are shaken together to make salad dressing. E. Molten bronze is poured into a mold and solidifies to form a figurine. F. A reactant decomposes to form two products. 2. A sealed glass tube contains 2.25 g of copper and 3.32 g of sulfur. The mass of the tube and its contents is 18.48 g. Upon heating, a reaction forms copper (II) sulfide (CuS). All of the copper reacts, but only 1.14 g of sulfur reacts. Predict what the mass of the tube and its contents will be after the reaction is completed. Explain your reasoning. 3. When heated, calcium hydroxide and ammonium chloride react to produce ammonia gas, water vapor, and solid…arrow_forwardYour brother says that the atoms in your grandfather’s body are older than the atoms in your brother’s newborn baby.
