Name the type of reaction shown:2C4H10+13O2=8CO2+10H2O

Chemical change is any change that results in the formation of new chemical substances. At the molecular level, chemical change involves making or breaking of bonds between atoms. These changes are chemical:

iron rusting (iron oxide forms)gasoline burning (water vapor and carbon dioxide form)eggs cooking (fluid protein molecules uncoil and crosslink to form a network)bread rising (yeast converts carbohydrates into carbon dioxide gas)milk souring (sour-tasting lactic acid is produced)suntanning (vitamin D and melanin is produced)

Physical change rearranges molecules but doesn't affect their internal structures. Some examples of physical change are:

whipping egg whites (air is forced into the fluid, but no new substance is produced)magnetizing a compass needle (there is realignment of groups ("domains") of iron atoms, but no real change within the iron atoms themselves).boiling water (water molecules are forced away from each other when the liquid changes to vapor, but the molecules are still H2O.)dissolving sugar in water (sugar molecules are dispersed within the water, but the individual sugar molecules are unchanged.)dicing potatoes (cutting usually separates molecules without changing them.)

Classification of real processes can be tricky. Complex changes can be broken down into many simpler steps. Some of the steps are chemical and others are physical, so the overall process can't cleanly be placed in either category. For example, boiling coffee involves chemical change (the delicate molecules that give coffee its flavor react with air and become new, bitter-tasting substances) and physical change (the water in the coffee is going from liquid to gaseous form.)

Answer: as a student , i will do to help in preventing pollution in my community :

Reduce the number of trips you take in your car.

Reduce or eliminate fireplace and wood stove use.

Avoid burning leaves, trash, and other materials.

Avoid using gas-powered lawn and garden equipment.

Using non-toxic or less toxic chemicals as cleaners, degreasers and other maintenance chemicals. Implementing water and energy conservation practices. Reusing materials such as drums and pallets rather than disposing of them as waste.

Store your household chemicals (including cleaning products, paints, fuel canisters, etc.) as far away as possible from the living space and, if possible, in metal cabinets. Do not store chemicals in areas where you spend most of the time. Also, do not store chemicals in open cabinets or shelves.

Use Public Transportation. Use your vehicle a lot less often. .

Drive Smart. .

Do Regular Car Check-Up. .

Keep Car Tires Properly Inflated. .

Buy Energy-Efficient Vehicles. .

Consider “going green” .

Plant a Garden. .

Use Low-VOC or Water-based Paints.

Avoid smoking indoors (but quitting smoking is the best answer for overall health).

Use craft supplies in well-ventilated areas.

Make sure your gas stove is well-ventilated.

Minimize clutter.

Remove carpeting if possible.

Use a dehumidifier and/or air conditioner to reduce moisture.

How can students help reduce pollution?

Help Recycling

The most obvious things to reuse are plastic, glass, metal, and paper or fabric (paper and organic fabric are made of the same component, cellulose, and are recycled in a similar way). The color-coded trash bins show where each of these components can be put to be recycled in a proper way.
