Physical Science Unit 7 Study Guide: Chemical Reactions


• Review: Chemical vs. Physical Properties and Changes
1. List 5 examples of physical properties.
Temperature Size
Color Density
Mass Solubility
Volume Shape

2. List 5 examples of physical changes.


Freezing Breaking
Melting Separating
Evaporating Mixing

3. List 5 different types of evidence that a chemical change has occurred and list what types of
observations you would make for each one.
Release of a gas Change in color
Formation of a precipitate Presence of an odor
Change in energy

4. What is a precipitate?
Is the solid that forms when you mix two solutions

5. Which of the following is a physical change?


a. Formation of a silver sulfide when silver reacts with sulfur in the air
b. Burning methane gas, producing water and carbon dioxide
c. Condensation of water vapor on the outside of a cold can of soda
d. Vinegar and baking soda combining and forming a salt and water

• Distinguish Between Chemical and Physical Changes


6. When does a chemical change occur?
When there is a rearrangement of atoms. A new substance is produced

7. What is the difference between a chemical change and a physical change?


A chemical change occurs when you have a new substance.
A physical change occurs when you have the same substance as you started with

8. What is the difference between a color change as a chemical change and a physical change?
When there is a color change that is a physical change it is just mixing. When it is a result of a
chemical change it is because a new substance is produced.
