In the previous lesson, we realized that it is not always possible to figure out whether or not a chemical reaction has happened just by observing changes in properties. Today, we’ll look at the nanoscale to figure out if a chemical reaction has happened or not.

Did a Chemical Reaction Happen?

Chemical Reaction - Substances are mixed and at least one new substance with different properties (with different molecules) is formed.

Directions:
  • Analyze each diagram. Look carefully at both the observable scale and the nanoscale.
  • Think about whether there is evidence that a chemical reaction happened.
  • Answer the question below each diagram.

Modeling Chemical Reactions

We know that during a chemical reaction, new substances and molecules form. But where do the new molecules come from? Let’s find out by modeling the reactions we’ve studied.
Baking Soda and Vinegar

1. Together with your class, use the Baking Soda and Vinegar Model to show which atoms make up the molecules that form after baking soda and vinegar react.

2. Look at the molecule key to see which atoms are in each molecule.
Use this diagram / model to answer the questions below:
