Question

When baking soda and vinegar are mixed together bubbles form and the vinegar and baking soda are changed into new chemicals. Is this an example of physical or chemical or both physical and chemical or neither physical nor chemical?

Answer 1

Its a chemical change.

Step-by-step explanation:

When baking soda and vinegar are mixed bubbles formed and new product is formed by both reactant. So its a chemical change because in a chemical change new substances are formed.

Chemical change:

The changes, that occur due to change in the composition of a substance and result in a different compound is known as chemical change.

These changes are irreversible

These changes occur due to chemical reactions

These may not be observed with naked eye

Example:

Combustion of fuel or wood: that oil or wood convert into energy, CO2 and ash in case of wood

Boiling of egg: that change the chemical composition of protein in the egg .

The reaction of Hydrogen and oxygen:

H 2 (g) + O 2 (g) -------------------------------------> 2H 2O (l)
