Indicators Of a Chemical Change:-
There are five signs of a chemical change:
➪ Color Change :
Sometimes when the composition of substances change, the colour changes as well. It must be noted that colour change is commonly observed in a physical reaction when two colours mix.
➪ Production of an odor :
Decomposition reactions will commonly produce odours. Decomposition means that the beginning substance is breaking down into multiple different substances. An example of a decomposition reaction is the rotting of an egg.
➪ Change of Temperature :
Heat is often produced in chemical reactions. Using a thermometer would be the most reliable way to determine changes in temperature. If the temperature increases as a result of the reaction, it is called an exothermic reaction.
➪ Evolution of a gas (formation of bubbles) :
When bubbles form, there is a gas present. If a gas is formed in the reaction, there is commonly a temperature change as well.
➪ Precipitate (formation of a solid) :
A precipitate is a solid substance that may form during certain chemical reactions.
