After the calcium dissolves add an indicator (such as litmus, methyl red or methyl orange) and observe the color, all of them imply that the solution is alkaline. As the pH value changes, a chemical reaction should be occurred. The alkaline substance is aqueous calcium hydroxide.
Dissolution is a physical change.
Dissolving in water is a physical change.
No, dissolving is a physical change
yes, it is a chemical change.
Dissolving is a physical process.
It is a physical change.
Dissolving in water is a physical change.
Yes. Dissolving drink mix does not change its chemical composition.
chemical change
Adding calcium to water results in a chemical change because the calcium and the water that react are combined to form a distinct new substance, calcium hydroxide, that did not exist in either the calcium or the water before their reaction.
1. Dissolving with reaction - an example is dissolving in an acid - involve a chemical change because new compounds are formed. 2. Dissolving without a reaction - for example dissolution of table salt in water - is not a chemical change; only dissociation can occur.
Dissolving is considered by most to be a physical change.
