Multiple Choice
Which of the following statements is true about chemical properties in any chemical reaction?
A
Chemical properties are not affected by temperature or pressure.
B
Chemical properties remain unchanged during a chemical reaction.
C
Chemical properties only change if the reaction is endothermic.
D
Chemical properties of substances change as new substances are formed.
Verified step by step guidance
1
Understand that chemical properties describe a substance's ability to undergo specific chemical changes and form new substances.
Recognize that during a chemical reaction, the original substances (reactants) are transformed into different substances (products) with different chemical properties.
Note that chemical properties are not constant during a reaction because the identity of the substances changes, unlike physical properties which may remain the same.
Acknowledge that temperature and pressure can influence the rate or extent of a reaction but do not define the chemical properties themselves.
Conclude that the true statement is: chemical properties of substances change as new substances are formed during a chemical reaction.
