Questions and Answers

What is the main difference between reversible changes and irreversible changes?

  • Reversible changes involve the formation of new substances, while irreversible changes do not.
  • Reversible changes are physical changes, while irreversible changes are chemical changes.
  • Reversible changes allow a substance to return to its original state, while irreversible changes do not. (correct)
  • Reversible changes result in a change in chemical properties, while irreversible changes do not.
  • Match the following terms with their definitions:

    Melt = Reversible change where a solid turns into a liquid Evaporate = Reversible change where a liquid turns into a gas Condense = Reversible change where a gas turns into a liquid Solution = Homogeneous mixture of a solvent and a solute Solvent = The component of a solution present in the largest amount Solute = The component of a solution present in a smaller amount Uniform = Having the same properties throughout

    Study Notes

    Changes to Substances

    • A substance can undergo two types of changes: reversible and irreversible changes.

    Reversible Changes

    • A substance can return to its original state.
    • The chemical properties of the substance do not change.
    • Most physical changes are reversible changes.
    • No new substances are formed.

    Irreversible Changes

    • A substance cannot return to its original state.
    • The chemical properties of the substance change.
    • All chemical changes are irreversible changes.
    • New substances are formed.

    Key Concepts

    • Melt: a type of physical change.
    • Evaporate: a type of physical change.
    • Solution: a mixture of a solvent and a solute.
    • Solvent: the substance that dissolves the solute.
    • Solute: the substance that is dissolved in the solvent.
    • Uniform: a mixture that has the same composition throughout.
    • Condense: a type of physical change.
