Is bananas turning black if you leave them in a warm cupboard for a week a chemical reaction and why?

Yes, it is a chemical reaction, because the colour of the banana has changed, which shows that a chemical reaction has taken place. Also, if the banana has gone black and turned bad, you can't change it back to it's original form, which proves that it is a chemical reaction and not a physical reaction. Remember - A chemical reaction has definitely taken place if : It's colour has changed A gas is given off There are energy changes Or, it can't be changed back to what it used to be! :) Hope this helps!!

No. It is a physical change. The chemical formula for water is H2O, and that is also the chemical formula for ice. So there is no chemical change taking place, only a change in the state of matter.


When paper turn yellow brown upon exposure to sun light what type of change is likely taking place?

The paper is likely undergoing a chemical change called photodegradation, where the molecules in the paper are breaking down due to the energy from sunlight. This can cause the paper to change color and become brittle over time.


When a green banana turns yellow a sit ripens. What kind of change is taking place?

What causes a banana's peel to turn brown or black and what causes the fruit to ripen are two different things. A banana's peel turns brown due to an enzyme (polyphenyl oxidase), which is naturally found in the banana. The enzyme polymerises phenols in the banana skin into polyphenols. Polyphenols are similar to melanin, the pigment responsible for the color in our skin. This is what blackens the skin of the bananas.The enzyme that makes bananas sweet is called amylase. Amylase breaks down the starch in the banana fruit. When the starch is broken into its smaller sugar components, called glucose, the banana tastes sweet. The enzyme that softens the banana is called pectinase. Pectinase breaks down the cell walls in the banana fruit so that it is less firm.
