Why are some examples of a chemical reaction not actually foolproof evidence that of a chemical reaction?13, 8th grade, and I'm

doing my science lab report: 
The lab was a chemistry lab. We got a bunch of toxic chemicals and put pairs of them together, recorded the reactions, and wrote balanced equations for each of them and identified what kind of reaction they were. The whole name of the lab is "Evidence of Chemical Reactions", and one of the first analysis questions is "write a paragraph about the kinds of changes you would expect to see if a chemical reaction occurs." I answered this with things like bubble formation, change of color, change of state of matter, etc. Then the next question said "any one of these signs is not always a fool proof indication that a chemical reaction is occurring. give two examples to support this statement." 
what are two examples to support the statement that the commonly known examples of chemical reactions occurring are not always foolproof evidence that chemical reactions are occurring?

So basically, the change in color effects the amount of cations in the solution making it a physical change rather than a chemical one, defying the law of conservation of mass! I hope this helped! (The only time the change in color affects the amount of cations is in the Alkaline Earth Metals)

When electrodes are used to record the electrocardiogram, an electrolyte gel is usually put between them and the surface of the
klemol [59]

Answer:

The equivalent circuit for the electrode while the electrolyte gel is fresh

From the uploaded diagram the part A is the electrolyte, the part part B is the electrolyte gel when is fresh and the part C is the surface of the skin

Now as the electrolyte gel start to dry out the resistance R_s of the gel begins to increase and this starts to limit the flow of current . Now when the gel is then completely dried out  the resistance of the gel R_s then increases to infinity  and this in turn cut off flow of current.

The diagram illustrating this is shown on the second uploaded image

In the laboratory, a general chemistry student measured the pH of a 0.529 M aqueous solution of phenol (a weak acid), C6H5OH to
Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

The dissociation constant of phenol from given information is 9.34\times 10^{-11}.

Explanation:

The measured pH of the solution = 5.153

C_6H_5OH\rightarrow C_6H_5O^-+H^+

Initially      c

At eq'm   c-x       x  x

The expression of dissociation constant is given as:

K_a=\frac{[C_6H_5O^-][H^+]}{[C_6H_5OOH]}

Concentration of phenoxide ions and hydrogen ions are equal to x.

pH=-\log[x]

5.153=-\log[x]

x=7.03\times 10^{-6} M

K_a=\frac{x\times x}{(c-x)}=\frac{x^2}{(c-x)}=\frac{(7.03\times 10^{-6} M)^2}{ 0.529 M-7.03\times 10^{-6} M}

K_a=9.34\times 10^{-11}

The dissociation constant of phenol from given information is 9.34\times 10^{-11}.
