In experiment #2, there were _______ state of matter changes 

1

Which state of matter change was responsible for the ice crystals that formed in experiment #2 _______ 

1

For a change to a substance to be considered “chemical” in nature, we must see _______ (#) indicator(s) of chemical changes or properties.

2

Select both of the experiments that involved the chemical property of pH, whether we used chemicals that helped indicate it or changed the pH level during the experiment.

1

In Experiment #1, the color changed from  _______ to _______ .

2

Select all of the experiments that had a state of matter change occur (within the original substance.)

2

Select all of the experiments that experienced a PHYSICAL change in temperature.

EXTRA CREDIT: When bubbles form in a liquid, how do we know when it is a chemical change (effervesce) and not just a state of matter change?

Extra points if you can correctly use one of our experiments to support/explain your answer.
