When adding baking soda and vinegar together, it fizzes and bubbles. Why?
A new substance, CO2 is formed.
A physical change takes place.
Vinegar has gas bubbles inside.
We are boiling the baking soda.
precipitate formed
light produced
bubbles released
a solution getting hotter
crystals dissolving
What is the difference between a chemical change and a physical change?
A physical change creates a new substance, a chemical change does not.
A chemical change creates a new substance, a physical change does not.
A chemical change makes the substance look different but a physical change does not.
A physical change makes the substance change color where a chemical change does not.
A granular substance is added to a liquid. Which of the following would provide evidence to suggest a chemical change has taken place?

A chemical reaction produced a gas.
No chemical reaction took place.
Only a physical change happened.

metal
element
precipitate
a substance that has the same properties
a metal
