A teacher tells students to describe the physical properties of 10 mL of vinegar and 10 mL of milk. The teacher then pours the vinegar and milk into the same beaker. The students are surprised to see a white solid substance form within the beaker as the two substances are combined.

What occurs within the beaker as the teacher mixes the vinegar and milk?

• A physical change that creates a new substance.

• A physical combination that produces a solid.

• A chemical change that produces a precipitate.

• A corrosive reaction between two liquids.

3.Marie has a balloon with a small amount of baking soda in it. She fits the open end of the balloon over a graduated cylinder containing some vinegar. As she lifts the end of the balloon the baking soda pours into the vinegar causing bubbling and fizzing to occur. Marie observes the balloon began to "fill" up. Based on these observations, which of these can Marie determine about the new substance formed by mixing baking soda with vinegar?

• only a physical change occurred.

• a chemical reaction occurred producing a gas.

• a chemical reaction occurred producing a solid.

• no chemical reaction took place.

A teacher fills a bottle half-full of vinegar. He places baking soda in a paper napkin tied to a rubber stopper. When he shakes the bottle, the vinegar reacts with the baking soda producing bubbles. When the bubbles fill the bottle, the stopper is forced off the top of the bottle. Why does this happen?

• The gas created in the reaction takes up more room than the space in the bottle.

• The temperature of the bottle changes which makes the stopper become too loose.

• The string, napkin, and stopper make the reaction happen too fast.

• There is too much vinegar left in the bottle.

During a lab investigation, students followed this procedure:

Students observed bubbles immediately forming around the chalk. After the bubbles stopped forming, the students noticed that the chalk was smaller. Some students tried to recover the missing chalk from the vinegar, but no chalk particles were visible. 

What kind of change did the chalk undergo AND what evidence could be used to support the answer?
