Evidences of Chemical Change

1. The Best Friend's Club uses "invisible ink" to write notes to each other. The invisible ink is actually lemon juice that is clear when it dries on paper, but turns brown when a club member holds a burning candle under the paper. Once it is heated, it is never invisible again.

What type of change is occurring when the paper is heated?

• Chemical Change

• Physical Change

• Elemental Change

• Temperature Change

A student mixes two clear liquids together. After a few minutes, a white powdery solid can be seen settling on the bottom of the test tube. Which of the following is a conclusion that the student can draw based on these observations? The two clear liquids-

• were pure substances before they were mixed

• are toxic and should be handled with extreme caution

• have gone through a chemical change in which a new substance called a precipitate was produced

• have been stored too long and are no longer good

A student added white crystals to a clear liquid. The crystals dissolved in the liquid. After a few seconds, the liquid became quite warm and then turned bright red in color. Indications that a chemical change was taking place could be observed when –

• the white crystals were added to the clear liquid.

• the crystals dissolved in the liquid leaving only the liquid visible

• There are no indications of chemical change

• the temperature of the liquid increased and an unexpected color change occurred.
