Q

When do Chemical changes occur?

A

When Chemical reactions between two elements happen, creating a new substance. They involve the creation of compounds

Q

What are Physical changes?

A

In a physical change, no substances are formed, instead, a change of state occurs or diffusion.

Q

What is a molecule?

A

They are made when two atoms chemically combine. If atoms are from different elements, they create a compound. Helium particles are not molecules. Hydrogen, nitrogen and oxygen’s are.

Q

Atoms/Elements are…

A

Atom is the smallest particle. Found in Elements.
Elements are made of only one type of atom and cannot be split through chemical methods, though they can through electrolysis. There are 118

1 iron/ 2 sulphur/ 3 iron sulphide is...
1brown grey, is magnetic and forms hydrogen with hydrochloric acid 2yellow, isn't magnetic 3dark black, isn't magnetic, Hydrogen sulfate formed with hydrochloric acid
28
When burnt, magnesium
Changes from wire to powder as it reacts with oxygen
29
Signs of a Chemical Reaction
*Light is given off *change of colour *heat is given off * gas is given off *smell is given off *sound is given off

35
Barium nitrate/sodium hydroxide
Opaque purple
36
Silver nitrate/iron sulphate
Extremely opaque
37
Ammonia conadate/hydrochloric acid and zinc
White
38
Why can't chemical changes easily be reversed
As atoms from different elements have bonded, meaning that they have a different composition to before. For example, when magnesium is burnt, it turns into a powder, which can't be easily a wire again
39
Why doesn't mass change in chemical/physical changes?
As no atoms are added or taken away throughout the change. The new substance created in chemical reactions is composed of the reactants' atoms.
