Answer:
A. a new substance is being produced.
Explanation:
The bubbles most likely indicates that a new substance is being produced by this reaction. In essence, we describe this sort of change as chemical change.
In a chemical change, new substances are usually produced. They are accompanied by the evolution or absorption of energy.
The reaction of Zinc with a strong acid to produce bubbles on the surface of the metal indicates a chemical change and the formation of a new kind of substance.
Take for example, let zinc reacts with hydrocholoric acid, HCl;
Zn + 2HCl → ZnCl₂ + H₂
Since Zn is higher than Hydrogen in the activity series, it will displace it from HCl and liberate hydrogen gas as a product. This will cause the bubbles observed in the reaction.
This is a chemical change and new products have been formed.
B and D are wrong because they are both physical changes.
C is wrong because no information about such is provided by the problem statement.
So, when a piece of zinc metal combines with a strong acid, a new kind of substance is produced.
Which diagram? There isn’t any there lol
True is correct answer.
Polymerization is the process of linking it has a smaller molecules to form has a long chains of higher molecular weight.
Hope it helped you.
