Step/Procedure

Student Observations

Observe and describe the appearance of calcium chloride, sodium bicarbonate, and phenol red solution

  • Calcium Chloride- solid, white powder
  • Sodium bicarbonate- solid, white powder
  • Phenol Red- Red liquid

2

Place the following three substances in separate locations in a sealable plastic bag that is lying flat on a table.

a. 1 tablespoon of calcium chloride

b. 1 teaspoon of sodium bicarbonate

c. 10 mL of phenol red indicator solution


3

Squeeze out as much air as possible from the zipper-lock bag and seal it. Allow the contents to mix thoroughly.


4

carefully observe (by means of sight and touch) the changes that take place in the zipper-lock bag. Have students record all their observations in Data Tab

  • There is a color change from red to yellow
  • One side of the bag is getting hot
  • The other side of the bag is getting cold
  • There are bubbles forming in the bag
  • The bag is expanding


What was the evidence that a chemical change occurred in the bag experiment?

color change, temperature change, gas production, and bag expansion
