Some indicators of a chemical reaction are:
- change of color
- change of odor
- release of a gas
- change of the temperature
- change of the viscosity
- formation of a precipitate
- change of general appearance
- possible explosion
- possible chemiluminescence -formation of new compounds
What else can I help you with?
When a precipitate is formed from the mixture of two chemicals is it a physical or chemical change?
Chemical. Four good indicators of a chemical change are: # Change in Color # Change in Temperature # Creation of a gas # Creation of a precipitate These don't always indicate a chemical change, but are good guidelines if you are unsure.
Is evaporated gasoline a chemical change?
No, it would be a physical change. During a chemical change, substance(s) are changed into different substances. An example of a chemical change would be the rusting of iron but a physical change would be freezing water; or in this case, evaporation.
What would indicate that a chemical change might be occurring -Apex?
Some indicators of a chemical reaction are:- change of color- change of odor- release of a gas- change of the temperature- change of the viscosity- formation of a precipitate- change of general appearance- possible explosion - possible chemiluminescence - formation of new compounds
How might a thermometer help you decide if there was any chemical change on mixing iron and charcoal?
For a chemical change to occur, there must be a chemical reaction. A chemical reaction would be either endothermic (uses energy, mostly heat), or exothermic (produces energy, again mostly heat). Any change in temperature of the reactants, as measured by a thermometer, will tell you not only ifa chemical reaction occurred, but also which kind of chemical reaction. No temperature change usually indicates that no reaction has occurred, a decrease in temperature would indicate an endothermic reaction, while an increase in temperature would indicate an exothermic reaction.
Is spray painting a car a chemical or physical change?
Spray painting a car involves a chemical change because the paint chemicals react to form a new substance that bonds to the surface of the car's body. This is different from a physical change, where the paint would simply be a new layer on top of the car without a chemical reaction occurring.
Is freeze-drying a physical property or a chemical property?
i would think physical, unless there is a chemical change occurring..... :)
If you mix to clear liquids together and bubbles for what type of change would this indicate?
It indicates a chemical reaction because it changes from one substance to another.
Is heat light and change in odor indicate a physical change?
Heat, light, and change in odor can indicate a physical change depending on the context. For example, melting ice into water is a physical change because it does not alter the chemical composition of the substance. However, if a substance undergoes a chemical reaction that results in heat, light, and change in odor, then it would be considered a chemical change.

Is mixing salt water and silver nitrate chemical change or physical change?
Mixing salt water and silver nitrate would result in a chemical change, as a reaction would occur between the compounds to form a precipitate of silver chloride. This new substance has different chemical properties than the original reactants.

Is milk sours a example of physical change?
No, milk souring is an example of a chemical change. When milk sours, bacteria ferment the lactose in the milk, producing lactic acid, which changes the composition and properties of the milk. This is a chemical reaction, not a physical change.

Is a leave changing color a physical change or chemical?
I think it is a physical change because if it's a chemical change it would be a whole new substance but it's only a change of color. Re: No it can't be a physical change because it's irreversible. There is a chemical reaction occurring in the leaves, so it should be a chemical change.
If you have steam in a test tube which condenses to moisture-is this a physical or chemical property?
You have a phase change which would indicate a physical change since the substance remains the same in composition.
Is a change in shape a clue that indicate a chemical change?
It is a physical change unless it is caught on fire to mold into a different shape then it would be a chemical change. The substance that does change shape does not develop new chemical properties.
