In a chemical change, the chemical bonds in the molecules break. The atoms then link together to form new molecules. The types of molecules in matter before and after a chemical change are always different. For example, burning a piece of paper is a chemical change. As paper burns, paper molecules react with oxygen molecules in the air. This reaction breaks the chemical bonds in the molecules. The atoms then relink and form different molecules. For example, carbon dioxide molecules are created when paper burns. Also, once a paper burns you can't get the original piece of paper back. When something can't go back to the original state (or object) this likely means a chemical change has occurred.
In a physical change, chemical bonds do not break. The types of molecules in matter before and after a physical change are always the same. A change of state is a type of physical change. For example, ice melting is a physical change. Ice and water are made of the same thing: water. You can also re-freeze melted water back to ice. When something can go back to the original state (or object) this likely means a physical change has occurred.
The answer is "a physical change" because the chemical composition of Zinc Chloride does not change as its melting.

You are doing a science experiment in your classroom. Your teacher gives you these instructions and tells you a chemical reaction will take place.
Materials: ammonium nitrate (NH4NO3), tap water(H2O), Ziploc bags, a graduated cylinder and a balance.
Procedure:
1. Measure out 5 grams of ammonium nitrate and place it directly into a Ziploc plastic bag.
2. Using a graduated cylinder, measure exactly 10 mL of water .
3. Quickly, pour the water into the bag of ammonium nitrate, remove excess air and seal the bag.
4. Gently squeeze the bag to mix the solid and water. Observe while holding the bag.
After doing the experiment you recorded the following observations:
- the water did not change color
- the ammonium nitrate dissolved completely
- the bag got much colder
- no bubbles were produced
Which of these is a sign that a chemical reaction took place when you mix the ammonium nitrate and the water?

In a chemical change, the chemical bonds in the molecules break. The atoms then link together to form new molecules. The types of molecules in matter before and after a chemical change are always different. For example, burning a piece of paper is a chemical change. As paper burns, paper molecules react with oxygen molecules in the air. This reaction breaks the chemical bonds in the molecules. The atoms then relink and form different molecules. For example, carbon dioxide molecules are created when paper burns. Also, once a paper burns you can't get the original piece of paper back. When something can't go back to the original state (or object) this likely means a chemical change has occurred.
In a physical change, chemical bonds do not break. The types of molecules in matter before and after a physical change are always the same. A change of state is a type of physical change. For example, ice melting is a physical change. Ice and water are made of the same thing: water. You can also re-freeze melted water back to ice. When something can go back to the original state (or object) this likely means a physical change has occurred.
The answer is "a change in the phase of matter" because state changes are examples of physical changes.

You are doing a science experiment in your classroom. Your teacher gives you these instructions and tells you a chemical reaction will take place.
Materials: ammonium nitrate (NH4NO3), tap water(H2O), Ziploc bags, a graduated cylinder and a balance.
Procedure:
1. Measure out 5 grams of ammonium nitrate and place it directly into a Ziploc plastic bag.
2. Using a graduated cylinder, measure exactly 10 mL of water .
3. Quickly, pour the water into the bag of ammonium nitrate, remove excess air and seal the bag.
4. Gently squeeze the bag to mix the solid and water. Observe while holding the bag.
After doing the experiment you recorded the following observations:
- the water did not change color
- the ammonium nitrate dissolved completely
- the bag got much colder
- no bubbles were produced
Which of these is a sign that a chemical reaction took place when you mix the ammonium nitrate and the water?

In a chemical change, the chemical bonds in the molecules break. The atoms then link together to form new molecules. The types of molecules in matter before and after a chemical change are always different. For example, burning a piece of paper is a chemical change. As paper burns, paper molecules react with oxygen molecules in the air. This reaction breaks the chemical bonds in the molecules. The atoms then relink and form different molecules. For example, carbon dioxide molecules are created when paper burns. Also, once a paper burns you can't get the original piece of paper back. When something can't go back to the original state (or object) this likely means a chemical change has occurred.
The answer is "the bag got much colder" because the absorption of thermal energy is evidence that an endothermic reaction has occurred.

The answer is "a physical change does not change the chemical identity of a substance." Both chemical and physical changes can involve heat, change the shape of a substance, or involve state changes.

An "indicator" is a substance that changes color to tell us whether another chemical is present in our solution. An example of an indicator is the substance called "methyl yellow" which makes a yellow color in the presence of an alkaline. Indicators changing color are a sign that what has occurred?

The answer is "a chemical change because a new substance is produced." The answer is not physical change and the reason is "because a new substance is produced" since we know a change in chemical identity occurs and the substance KCl is present on the other side of the equation. The law of conservation of mass is true of physical changes as well.
