Identifying Chemical Reactions: Observable Signs and Indicators

The video tutorial explains how to identify chemical reactions through observable signs such as color change, odor emission, gas production, and precipitate formation. It uses the example of baking cookies to illustrate these concepts and contrasts them with physical changes like mixing ingredients. The tutorial concludes with a review and questions to reinforce learning.

Discuss the difference between a physical change and a chemical change.

What are some observable signs that indicate a chemical reaction has occurred?

Explain how a change in color can signify a chemical reaction.
