What to Focus On

  • Reactants take part in the reaction.
  • Products are the new substances formed.
  • Chemical bonds hold atoms or ions together.
  • Gas evolution is a common sign of reaction.
  • Effervescence means gas bubbles form in a liquid.
  • Colour change can show a reaction has taken place.
  • Some reactions need heat, light, electricity, pressure, or catalysts.
  • Photosynthesis needs chlorophyll and sunlight.
  • Pure water conducts electricity poorly.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

A chemical reaction is the same as any physical change.

Reactants and products mean the same thing.

Every reaction that gives gas is a combustion reaction.
