• A chemical reaction produced a solid.

• No chemical reaction took place

• Only physical change happened

• A chemical reaction produced a gas.

Two liquids are mixed together. Which of the following does NOT identify the formation of a new substance?

• A gas is produced.

• One liquid dissolves into the other.

• The temperature changes.

• A solid (precipitate) is formed.

Flour, sugar, cocoa, oil, and eggs are mixed together and placed in the oven to make brownies. When the brownies are removed from the oven, they no longer look like the original ingredients. Which of the following describes why the ingredients changed?

• A biological change occurred.

• No change occurred.

• A physical change occurred.

• A chemical change occurred.

When vinegar and baking soda are combined, bubbles and foam are produced.

What evidence demonstrates that a chemical change has occurred?

• A color change occurs.

• A gas is formed.

• A solid is dissolved.

• A precipitate is formed.

After an investigation, students were disposing of left over substances. One student poured all of the liquids down the sink drain. A few seconds later, a white cloud formed above the sink and the student’s eyes began to burn. Which statement accurately describes what caused this occurrence?

• The student did not allow water to run in the sink after pouring each liquid down the drain.

• A physical change occurred resulting in the formation of a new substance

• A chemical change occurred resulting in the formation of a new substance.
