Chemical Reactions Lesson

Oscar mixed two samples together: a brown solid that melts at about 1,300°C and a colorless liquid that melts at about 20°C. He analyzed the results and found two ending substances. One of the ending substances melts at about 250°C. This ending substance is made up of the repeating group of atoms shown above. Which of the diagrams (answers) shows the repeating groups of atoms that make up the samples the chemist mixed together?

Michael is developing a chemical to help foods stay fresh longer. He mixed a red liquid substance and a colorless solid substance together in a sealed container. The diagram above shows the repeating groups of atoms that make up the two starting substances.

After mixing, Michael found two white substances in the sealed container. (Nothing had escaped.) Which of the diagrams to the left shows the repeating groups of atoms that make up the ending substances?

Stephanie combined two substances in a sealed container and analyzed the results. The ending substances did not look the same as the starting substances. She was given a diagram with the repeating groups of atoms that make up the starting substances, plus information about the properties of the starting and ending substances. Stephanie created a model of the repeating groups of atoms that might make up the two ending substances.

• Stephanie's model correctly demonstrates how the properties changed with the rearrangement of the atoms. However not all atoms are accounted for. There is a missing reactant.

• Stephanie's model is correct because the properties are different and the atoms are rearranged.

• Stephanie's model is incorrect because not all atoms are accounted for.

• Stephanie's model correctly demonstrates how the properties changed with the rearrangement of the atoms. However not all atoms are accounted for. There is a missing product.
