Atoms in Chemical Reactions

Chemical reactions happen when?

• The bonds between atoms grow until a substance changes states.

• The atoms in the reactants break apart into different substances.

• The atoms that form extended structures rearrange themselves to form new substances.

• The bonds between atoms in reactants break and reform to make new substances.

What happens when an electric current is introduced into a macroscopic amount of water?

• The water will start to boil.

• The water changes states from a liquid into a gas.

• The current produces an explosive hydrogen gas.

• The current causes the water to part outward from the source of the current.

What is a chemical equation?

• A shorthand notation that describes chemical reactions.

• A tool for scientists to solve for the reactants of a product.

• A tool for scientists to solve for the reactants of a product.

• A tool for scientists to solve for the reactants of a product.
