Analyzing Graphs

The graph at the right plots the amount of light

transmitted (% Transmittance) through a reaction flask
as a function of time. Initially, the flask contains only air.
After a short period of time, a light blue solution is
added to the reaction flask. After another period of time,
a clear solution is added to the flask, and the entire
solution turns dark blue.
Air only
Analyzing Graphs

1. At what time is the light blue solution added to the

reaction flask?
~2 minutes

Air only

2. At what time does the dark blue solution begin to

form?
~7-8 minutes

3. The %Transmittance levels off at about 8 minutes.

What is happening in the reaction flask?
~less than 25%

Air only
Analyzing Graphs

4. After 15 minutes, another solution is added to the

reaction flask and the % Transmittance returns to 100%.
Did another reaction take place? Please explain your
answer. Yes, because the substance
changed into another substance.

Air only

5. Two clear, colorless liquids are allowed to come to

room temperature (22 C). The timer is started and then
the two solutions are mixed together to form another
clear, colorless liquid. Looking at the graph to the right,
at what time were the two solutions mixed together?

~ 3 minutes

Both solutions
 A Thought Experiment

A sealed flask of a clear, colorless liquid is left sitting on an interior

sunny windowsill. After about an hour, there are droplets of a clear
liquid on the glass above the solution, which has turned yellow.
After two hours, the solution is dark brown with clear, colorless
droplets of liquid on the glass. After sitting on the windowsill for a
week, the walls of the flask have a silvery lining and both the
solution and the droplets are clear and colorless.

6. Which of the following is not an indication that a

chemical reaction has occurred?

(a) formation of liquid droplets above the solution

(b) the solution color changing from clear to yellow
(c) the solution color changing from brown to clear
(d) formation of a silvery metallic foil on the walls of the
flask

7. The formation of the silvery lining is an example of

which of the following indicators of chemical change?

(a) evolution of a gas

(b) distinct color change
(c) precipitate formation
(d) temperature change

A sealed flask of a clear, colorless liquid is left sitting on an interior

sunny windowsill. After about an hour, there are droplets of a clear
liquid on the glass above the solution, which has turned yellow.
After two hours, the solution is dark brown with clear, colorless
droplets of liquid on the glass. After sitting on the windowsill for a
week, the walls of the flask have a silvery lining and both the
solution and the droplets are clear and colorless.

8.(Short answer) There is only one reaction taking place

in the flask. What is one possible reason for all of the
color changes?
1. Condensation happened
2. Droplets Clear to yellow- reaction
3. The solution turned dark brown- could be same reaction
just more reactants to deal with.
4. Eventually, all reactants will become a silvery product-
just a very long time to happen

9.(Short answer) An observant chemistry student is
enjoying a glass of iced tea during lunch (not in the
lab!), and she notices that the color of her drink
changes as the ice in the glass melts. Is a chemical
reaction occurring? Why or why not?
Melting ice is a physical change and causes her
tea is becoming diluted with water.

Part A
Can you recognize the chemical and physical changes that
happen all around us? If you change the way something looks,
but havent made a new substance, a physical change (P) has
occurred. If the substance has been changes into another
substance, a chemical change (C) has occurred.
