Definitely a chemical change, the answer is B

Answer:

B. Chemical change because mass was lost

Explanation:

When experiment was done then at the end, the state of the specimen did not changed but the mass varied this certainly means it is a chemical change.

A chemical change can be describes as a change after which the properties of the reactant get changed and can never be replenished again.

It is termed as irreversible reaction as the original reactant cannot be taken out of the final product.

Mass of the reactant is not equal to the mass of the product and state is still the same which means there must be some chemical reaction that have taken place which is responsible for this loss of mass.

Which of the following is not an indication of a chemical reaction? a substance dissolves formation of a precipitate color chang
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

a substance dissolves.  


like adding a soluble salt to water, it just dissolves, i.e dissociates homogeneously as water is able to dissociate salts (ionic compounds) into its ions. (it can also dissociate other non-ionic compounds like HCL)  


the salt still remains chemically as a salt and is unchanged chemically thus it is not an indication of a chemical reaction as no chemical reaction has taken place.  


the formation of a precipitate is a chemical reaction because a new substance (i.e new chemical) is formed. For example adding aqueous sodium hydroxide into an aqueous solution with CU2+ cations will form a blue precipitate (that is copper (II) hydroxide which is insoluble, hence it precipitates). Since a new chemical is formed, a chemical reaction has taken place and thus indicates a chemical reaction.  


color change... im not sure but usually a color change will only occur when a new substance is formed. Like iron corrodes (i.e rust) slowly in moist air to form hydrated iron (III) oxide that is rust. (brown color).  


usually adding a mixture to a mixture has little energy change, i.e little heat taken in by the reaction mixture or little heat given out by the reaction mixture. Whereas when a new substance is formed, there is usually noticeable energy change like the container gets colder or hotter (without heat being supplied of course). For example dissolving basic oxides into water releases energy ( more energy released than gained = exothermic reaction).  


i think that should be the answer... hope it helped :D

A balloon that has been rubbed on wool has a negative charge. When the balloon is held over—but not touching—some bits of paper,
alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

This process is known as static electricity

Explanation:

When balloon is rubbed on the wool , a negative charge is usually formed. When the balloon is then held over—but not touching—some bits of paper, some of the bits jump up to the balloon. The bits which jump up to the balloon are positive charged and we know that unlike charges attract.

This process explains static electricity which is when the charges on a material are not in a balanced state.
