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

List three signs that could make you think a chemical reaction might be taking place?

Formation of bubbles or gas: Gas evolution can indicate a chemical reaction is occurring. Change in color: A sudden change in color could be a sign of a reaction, such as a shift from clear to cloudy. Temperature change: If the reaction generates heat (exothermic) or absorbs heat (endothermic), it can be an indication that a chemical reaction is taking place.


Why does the change in the color of material indicate that a chemical reaction occurred?

A change in color can indicate a chemical reaction has occurred because the reaction might be producing or consuming a colored compound. This means that the chemical composition of the material has changed, leading to a different color being observed. The new color can be a result of the formation of new substances with different properties than the initial materials.


What are three indicators of a chemical reaction occurring?

there are mainly two ways that indicate that a chemical change has taken place. These ways are the physical properties (the way things look, without changing the chemical makeup of a substance) are different, and the chemical properties (the way the substance reacts with other substances) are different.


What would indicate that a chemical change might be occurring?

Two solutions are mixed and a solid begins to appear


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.

The production of light when two substances are mixed might indicate that?

a chemical reaction is occurring between the two substances. The release of light is often a sign of energy being produced as a result of the reaction.

There are 92 naturally occurring what?

You might be referring to the chemical elements. However, we are now aware that there are 96. For more information you might wish to consult the wikipedia page about chemical elements.
