Questão Responda
What is the difference between a physical and chemical change? In a physical change, there are no new substances produced. while in a chemical change, new substances are produced.
Why is it that physical changes can often be easily reversed? Because the substance before and after the change is exactly the same.
What is the simplest example of a physical change? The simplest example is one that changes the shape or form of a substance.
What is the difference between expansion and contraction? In an expansion, the volume of the object increases and its density decreases. While in contraction, the object's volume decreases and its density increases.
What is melting? When a solid is heated enough, it will melt and change into a liquid. This process of the solid changing into a liquid is called melting.
What happens when liquid water is put in the freezer? The liquid water gets cooled enough to change into a solid. This process is called freezing.
What is a solution? When a solute is dissolved in a solvent, they form a solution.
What happens in a solution? The smallest particles of the solute mix and spread evenly throughout the smallest particles of the solvent.
What are the four indications of a chemical change?
Why is it that change in colour is likely a chemical change? This is because the new substance produced by the chemical change has a different colour to what you started to see
What is an example of a physical change that can also cause a change in colour? When the snow melts to form liquid water it turns from white to colourless.
What indicates the production of gas in a chemical change? A gas produced during a chemical change may be observed as bubbles, a new smell or even smoke.
What indicates that a chemical change occurred when two solutions mix? A new solid is produced when two solutions are mixed. The solid precipitates out of the solution and sinks to the bottom. This solid is known as the precipitate.
Why is it that light or change in temperature indicates a chemical change? This is because some chemical changes release energy in the form of heat light and or both. Such as a firework.
Why does a chemical ice pack feel icy cold? This is because this chemical ice pack uses a chemical change that absorbs a lot of heat and energy, causing it to feel so icy cold.
What is an example of a physical change that causes a change in temperature? When you sweat you feel cooler because the moisture evaporates and absorbs some heat from your skin.
Why is it that recycling is a series of physical changes and not chemical changes? In most cases when a substance is recycled, the form of the substance may change but the substance itself stays the same. Therefore, the recycling process is simply a series of physical change.
Why is it that heating the air inside a hot-air balloon allows it to float? Heating the air inside the balloon causes it to expand and become less dense than the air outside. As a result, the balloon floats.
Give an example of an exothermic reaction. Fires and explosives are examples of extreme exothermic reactions. They release large amounts of heat and light energy.
Why is aluminium recycled? Because recycling aluminium is cheaper than making it from new material.
