Question
a chemical change of matter takes place when one or more substances change into entirely new substances with different properties. although physical changes affect the appearance of a substance, chemical changes affect its composition. which process indicates that a chemical change is taking place? vinegar bubbles when baking soda is added. a lake freezes over into ice. a metal bar is rolled into a flat sheet. sand, water, and salt combine to form a mixture.
A chemical change results in new substances. When vinegar (acetic acid) reacts with baking soda (sodium bicarbonate), carbon - dioxide gas is produced, indicating a new substance is formed. Freezing a lake is a physical change (state change from liquid to solid). Rolling a metal bar is a physical change (shape change). Mixing sand, water, and salt is just a physical combination without new substance formation.
