Chemical Reactions- Sodium Hydroxide A chemical reaction is a change where two or more substances are changed into a new substance. You can identify a chemical reaction by colour change‚ effervescence (bubbles)‚ when light or heat given off‚ and the change is usually irreversible. There are 6 main types of chemical reactions- combustion (often called burning)‚ synthesis‚ decomposition‚ neutralization‚ single replacement and double replacement. A combustion reaction is a reaction with oxygen‚ and

Properties The density of water is given to be = 1000 kg/m3. Analysis The mass of the water in the tank and the total mass are mw =V =(1000 kg/m3)(0.2 m3) = 200 kg mtotal = mw + mtank = 200 + 3 = 203 kg Thus‚ 1-14 The variation of gravitational acceleration above the sea level is given as

Later on metals were combined into alloys like bronze that is formed by a combination of copper and tin. Platinum and zinc are one of the few discoveries of metals before the industrial age where an important development occurs for
