Explain how the properties of salt are different from the elements that form it.
96
97
How can you tell a chemical reaction is happening?
A change of color occurs during the reaction
A gas is produced during the reaction.
A solid product called a precipitate is produced during the reaction.
A transfer of energy occurs as a result of the reaction.
98
Example 1: Color Change
A solution of potassium permanganate is added to a solution of sodium hydroxide and sugar.
Notice how the colors change as the reaction continues
99
Poll
When food coloring is added to water, is a chemical reaction taking place?
Yes
No
100
A chemical reaction is NOT taking place? WHY???
Your reactants are food coloring and water and the product is food coloring and water.
There were no other signs of a chemical reaction taking place
The color change of water (went from clear to the color of the food coloring) was predictable. Often the color change in a chemical reaction are not necessarily predictable (as in the video)
101
Example 2: gas production
When zinc reacts with nitric acid, the reaction bubbles vigorously as Nitrogen gas is produced. The production of a gas is also an indication that a chemical reaction is occurring.
102
Example 3: precipitate formation
When a colorless solution of lead(II) nitrate is added to a colorless solution of potassium iodide, a yellow solid called a precipitate is instantly produced.
103
Transfer of Energy
All chemical changes involve a transfer of energy.
Energy/heat can be absorbed =Endothermic reaction.
Or
Energy/heat can be given off=Exothermic reaction
104
Example 4: Energy Transfer
Sodium and water produce an explosion. Energy/heat is being released. This is an exothermic reaction.

Question 7: Hoey
Dr. Hoey develops an experiment to investigate how different substances react when they are mixed with water. Before mixing the materials together, she measured the mass and temperature of the substances. During the experiment, Dr. Hoey mixes calcium and water in a glass with a plastic rod. Then, she mixes baking soda and water in a glass with a plastic rod. The results of the experiment are below.
Which of the following claims can Dr. Hoey make based on her investigation?
Solution A is a new substance because after the calcium and water mixed, the temperature increased and the color changed.
Solution B is a new substance because after the baking soda and water mixed, the solution was cloudy and the temperature remained the same.
Solution B is a new substance because after the baking soda and water mixed, the mass of the solution is equal to the mass of the baking soda and water before they were mixed.
Solution A and B are new substances because each solution stayed the same when they were mixed together.
133
