Observation and Results
Did you observer any chemical changes in this experiment?
Yes. CuCo2 turned green when I applied heat to it.
B. What evidence did you use to decide that something was a chemical change? I viewed my other test tubes to see if it there was a chemical change in those.
C. Give at least two examples of chemical changes you observed. Zn and MgO when I Diluted HCL
D. Classify the following properties of sodium metal as physical or chemical:
• Silver metallic color: Physical
• Turns gray in air:chemical
• Melts at 98ophysical
• Reacts explosively with chlorine gas: chemical
E. Classify the following changes as physical or chemical: • Water freezes at 0oC: Physical • Baking soda when combined with vinegar produces bubbles: Chemical
• Mothballs gradually disappear at room temperature: Physical
• Ice cubes in a freezer get smaller with time: Physcial
• Baking soda loses mass as it is heated:Chemical
• Tarnishing of silver:Chemical
F. How would you show that dissolving table salt is a physical change? If it dissolves in H20
