Which identifies that a chemical reaction has occurred? A. New substances are produced. B. The color has changed. C. Bubbles have formed. D. Temperature has changed.
Temperature could change from other sources of heat than reaction. Bubbles could occur due to trapped gas coming out. You are down to A or B. Which one indicates reactants have become products?
Adding to what Douglas said, it can not be color change because when you crack an egg, it starts clear with a little yellow, but if you mix it then it turns all yellow, which is a physical change and not chemical, a chemical reaction will completely change the substance rather then the look of the object. With makes the answer A. new substances are produced.
Thankyou.
