Study Notes
Cooking Pizza
- Making a pizza can vary from purchasing a "take and bake" option to creating dough from scratch with various toppings.
- Signs of a properly cooked pizza include a light brown crust, solidified dough, and melted cheese.
- It is important to ensure the pizza is fully cooked rather than half-raw.
Recognizing Chemical Reactions
-
Four visual indicators of a chemical reaction:
- Color change occurs.
- Production of gas is observed.
- Formation of a solid precipitate happens.
- Energy transfer is noted.
-
Mercury(II) Oxide Reaction:
- Mercury(II) oxide is a red solid that decomposes above 500°C into mercury (silver) and oxygen gas.
- The color change from red (mercury oxide) to silver (mercury) signifies that a reaction has occurred.
-
Zinc and Hydrochloric Acid Reaction:
- The reaction between zinc and hydrochloric acid produces vigorous bubbling, indicating hydrogen gas formation.
-
Lead(II) Nitrate and Potassium Iodide Reaction:
- Mixing colorless lead(II) nitrate with colorless potassium iodide produces a yellow precipitate (lead iodide).
- The appearance of the yellow solid signals that a chemical reaction has taken place.
-
Energy Transfer during Reactions:
- Reactions can either release energy (exothermic) or absorb energy (endothermic).
- For example, zinc reacting with hydrochloric acid generates heat, causing the test tube to feel warm.
-
Testing for Chemical Reactions:
- To confirm that a chemical reaction has occurred, the composition of substances should be analyzed post-reaction to identify any changes compared to the original substances.
