bonds breaking between atoms
c)
formation of new molecules
d)
bonds forming between atoms
6.
Two substances are combined and heat is produced.  Does this provide evidence that a chemical reaction took place?
a)
Yes, because energy is absorbed
b)
Yes, because energy is released
c)
No, because heat is not a chemical
d)
No, because this would be a physical change
7.
Which is the best description of activation energy?
a)
heat added to initiate a reaction
b)
heat released as the reaction proceeds
c)
heat stored within the reactant molecules

The bond forms between ions
b)
The bond forms when electrons are shared
c)
The bond holds atoms weakly
d)
The bond is caused by van der Waals forces
9.
Consider this energy diagram for a chemical reaction.  Overall, is energy released or absorbed?
a)
released, because the reaction is initiated by the addition of heat
b)
released, because the energy level of the reactants is greater than that of the products
c)
absorbed, because the energy level decreases during the reaction
d)
absorbed, because the energy level of the products is greater than that of the reactants
10.
