Question

  1. which of the following is a chemical property of water at 4 degrees c?

a. its ability to decompose into hydrogen and oxygen
b. its temperature
c. its state
d. its color

  1. what must be done to be certain that a chemical change has taken place?

a. check for the production of bubbles before and after the change.
b. demonstrate that a release of energy occurred after the change.
c. check the composition of the sample before and after the change.
d. demonstrate that energy was absorbed by the reactants after the change.

  1. when paper turns yellow-brown upon exposure to sunlight, what type of change is likely taking place?

a. both a physical change and a chemical change
b. a physical change
c. neither a physical change nor a chemical change
d. a chemical change

  1. which of the following indicates that a chemical change has happened during cooking?

a. energy is transferred from the stove to a pan.
b. bubbles form in boiling water.
c. the food darkens.
d. butter melts.

  1. which of the following indicates that a physical change has taken place?

a. precipitate formation
b. fracture formation
c. gas production
d. energy transfer

  1. which action changes the identity of the substance referenced?

Explanation:

Response
Question 43
Brief Explanations

A chemical property is related to a substance's ability to undergo a chemical reaction. Decomposing into hydrogen and oxygen (option a) involves a chemical reaction (water breaking into its elements), while temperature (b), state (c), and color (d) are physical properties.

Brief Explanations

A chemical change involves a change in composition. Checking composition before and after (option c) confirms if new substances formed. Bubbles (a) could be physical (e.g., boiling), energy release/absorption (b, d) can happen in physical changes (like phase changes), so only checking composition works.

Brief Explanations

Paper turning yellow - brown in sunlight is a chemical change because the paper's chemical structure is altered (due to reactions with light, like oxidation of lignin in paper), forming new substances. Physical changes don't change chemical identity, so it's a chemical change (option d).

Answer:

a. Its ability to decompose into hydrogen and oxygen
