Key Model Ideas
+ Combining calcium carbonate with each substance one at a time could provide evidence of whether a chemical reaction has occurred.
+ Evidence to look for one or more property changes.
+ If a property changes, then a new substance has been produced, which would support the scientistsā claim that a chemical reaction is occurring between the calcium carbonate and that substance.
Substance | Before combining |
water | Ā clear, liquid, odorless |
calcium carbonate | white, solid powder, odorless |
malic acid | white, solid powder, odorless |
Water & malic acid | Water & calcium carbonate | Malic acid & calcium carbonate | Water, calcium carbonate & malic acid |
+ soluble in water + no odor | + not soluble in water + no odor | + no observable change + no odor | + bubbles, a gas + an odor (floral/citrusy/soda) |
Evidence:
+ Ā Before these substances are combined, the malic acid and marble are solids and the water is a liquid.
+ Ā After combining there is a gas that forms.
+ Ā Before combining any substances, none of them have an odor.
+ Ā Malic acid and water combined do not have an odor.
+ Ā Calcium carbonate and water combined do not have an odor.
+ Ā When malic acid, calcium carbonate, and water are combined there is a flowery/soda like odor.
Use of key model ideas:
+ Ā Different substances have different properties.
+ Ā State of matter at room temperature is a property.
+ Ā Odor is a property.
+ Ā Chemical reactions produce new substances.
Related reasoning:
+ Ā Properties of substances in the container change.
+ Ā Since properties have changed, a new substance was made.
+ Since a new substance was made, a chemical reaction has occurred.
