198 When chemicals react together the reactants produce products. We may see if a chemical reaction has occurred because there may be a colour change, it may fizz, it may produce heat, ( or it may go colder ). If it fizzes this means that it is giving off a gas. Gases that we might expect to be produced are oxygen, carbon dioxide or hydrogen. When acids are added to a carbonates, carbon dioxide is produced. When a carbonate is heated, carbon dioxide is also produced.When a metal is added to water or an acid, hydrogen is produced. The test for hydrogen is that a lighted splint in hydrogen gas will produce a squeaky pop - a little, or large, explosion. The Hindenburg Airship produced a large explosion when a spark set light to to hydrogen in the airship. The test for carbon dioxide gas is that it will turn limewater cloudy. The test for oxygen gas is that it will relight a glowing splint. If a gas is produced in a reaction it will escape into the atmosphere, and the mass of the products appears to go down - because some of the mass is in the air!
