What is the written chemical reaction that occurs when you mix potassium and water?
The chemical reaction is:2 K + 2 H2O = 2 KOH + H2
Does a sugar dissolving in water is a physical property?
Yes it is because no chemical reaction occurs during it so it is not chemical.
What happens when water is added to the gas jars in which sulphur was burnt?
When water is added to the gas jars in which sulphur was burnt, a chemical reaction occurs. The sulphur dioxide gas produced from burning sulphur reacts with the water to form sulphurous acid (H2SO3). This reaction results in the formation of a colorless solution with acidic properties.
What is the chemical reaction when aluminium is added to water?
Aluminium hydroxide could be formed
Why does wine dissolve in water?
Wine will dissolve in water due to the chemical reaction from the sugar of the grapes. This occurs at the end of the fermentation process.
What occurs when heated water becomes water vapor?
A chemical reaction
Sodium fizzes when added to water. But why doesn't sodium chloride fizz when added to water?
Sodium fizzes in water because it is undergoing a chemical reaction with water to form sodium hydroxide. The result is more stable than either of the original chemicals. When sodium chloride is added to water both of these substances are stable with respect to each other and no reaction occurs that results in a new chemical product.
When sodium chloride is dissolved in water a chemical reaction occurs in which sodium chloride is the?
There is NO chemical reaction at all when you dissolve NaCl into water. Dissolving is NOT chemical but a physical change of state.When however a reaction occurs, the original compound is called (one of) the reactant(s) and the compound(s) formed is (are) the product(s) of a chemical reaction.

In hydrolysis is water added or removed?
Hydrolysis is a chemical reaction. Molecules of water are split into hydrogen cations and hydroxide anions in the process of a chemical mechanism.
Does a sugar dissolving in water is a physical property?
Yes it is because no chemical reaction occurs during it so it is not chemical.
Which chemical weathering process occurs when chemicals combine with water in a chemical reaction to change the physical of the rock?
Hydration
When sodium metal is dropped into a beaker of water a chemical reaction occurs that increases the temperature of the water This is an example of what?
You think probable to an exothermic reaction.
What reactions occurs when rubbing alcohol and water?
There is no chemical reaction between isopropanol and water, they simply mix.
