WORKSHEET 3
Subject: Chemistry
Chapter: Chemical Reaction and Equation

1. Match Column A with Column B in the following table:

Column A
k. limestone
l. Quick lime → slaked
lime
m. Exothermic reaction
n. Thermal decomposition
Column B
p. Combination reaction
q. Iron sulphate is heated in a test tube forming Fe2O3 and
oxides of sulphur
r. Calcium salt
s. Burning of wood

2. State your observation when:

a. Potassium iodide solution is added to a test tube containing lead nitrate solution.
b. Magnesium is burnt in oxygen
c. Lead nitrate crystals are heated in a dry test tube
3. Answer if the following chemical reactions will take place or not. Also comment on the relative
reactivity of the metals involved in each of the following cases:
a. Zn(s) + CuSO4(aq)→ ZnSO4(aq) + Cu(s)
b. MgCl2 + Ni → NiCl2 + Mg
c. 3Ca + 2Al(NO3)3 → 3Ca(NO3)2 + 2Al
4. Identify the substance undergoing oxidation and reduction in each of the following reactions:
a. CO2 + H2 → CO + H2O
b. Fe3O4 + 4H2 → 3Fe + 4H2O
c. H2S + Cl2 → S + 2HCl
5. Balance and identify the type of the following chemical reactions:
a. KClO3 → KCl + O2
b. AlCl3 + NH4OH → Al(OH)3 + NH4Cl
6. Study the following reaction carefully:
BaSO4 + 4C → BaS + 4CO
Will you categorize the above reaction as an oxidation, as a reduction or as a redox reaction?
Explain your answer with proper reason.
7. Which observation lets you conclude that a chemical reaction has taken place in the following
case?
