    Write any two observations in an activity which may suggest that a chemical reaction has taken place. Give an example in support of your answer.

    Marks:2
    Answer:

    A chemical change can be confirmed by any of the following observations:
     ·      
    Change in temperature
     ·      
    Evolution of gas
     ·      
    Change in colour
     ·      
    Formation of precipitates
     ·       Change in energy

    For example: Calcium oxide reacts vigorously with water to produce calcium hydroxide. During this process, a large amount of heat is evolved, which increases the temperature of the reaction mixture system. This confirms that a chemical reaction has taken place.
