Amplify Chemical Reactions

A chemist mixed two samples together: a brown solid that melts at about 1,300°C and a colorless liquid that melts at about 20°C. She 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 to the left shows the repeating groups of atoms that make up the samples the chemist mixed together?

Devorah is a food chemist, and she is developing a chemical to help foods stay fresh longer. She 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, Devorah found two white substances in the sealed container. (Nothing had escaped.)

Samira watched a demonstration in which a scientist combined two substances in a sealed container and analyzed the results. The ending substances did not look the same as the starting substances. Samira 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. She created a model of the repeating groups of atoms that might make up the two ending substances.

• Samira'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.

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

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

• Samira's model correctly demonstrates how the properties changed with the rearrangement of the atoms. However not all atoms are accounted for. There is an extra product, that shouldn't be in her model.

Andres is a chemist working at a company that makes ink. To make a new kind of ink, Andres mixed two liquid substances together in a sealed container. The diagram above shows the repeating groups of atoms that make up the two starting substances.

After mixing, Andres found two solid 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?

Can one substance change into another substance? (read carefully)

• No, because things can mix, but they can't change into new things

• Yes, because new atoms can be created

• No, because atoms can not be destroyed

• Yes, because atoms can be rearranged.
