Marco wants to investigate the chemical properties of sodium bicarbonate, or baking soda. He plans to carry out the tests below.Test 1: Mix a teaspoon of sodium bicarbonate into a cup of warm water to see if it dissolves.Test 2: Mix a teaspoon of sodium bicarbonate into a cup of vinegar to see if it fizzes.Test 3: Heat a teaspoon of sodium bicarbonate in the oven to see if its melting point is less than 400 degrees Fahrenheit.

A
Only Test 3 will indicate a chemical property of sodium bicarbonate. Tests 1 and 2 will show a physical property of the substance.
B
Only tests 1 and 2 will indicate chemical properties of sodium bicarbonate. Test 3 will show a physical property of the substance.
C
Only Test 2 will indicate a chemical property of sodium bicarbonate. Tests 1 and 3 will show a physical property of the substance.
D
Only tests 1 and 3 will indicate chemical properties of sodium bicarbonate. Test 2 will show a physical property of the substance.

Suna passes an electric current through a sample of clear, colorless, and odorless liquid. As the experiment continues, bubbles form, and the volume of liquid decreases. Suna collects samples of two colorless, odorless gases that bubble out of the liquid. One of the gases burns. Neither the original liquid nor the other gas burns.Which is the best explanation of her results?

A
The electric current changed some of the sample to gas even though the sample was not breaking down. Therefore, the original liquid is a compound.
B
The electric current released a gas that was odorless and colorless, like the original sample. Therefore, the original liquid is an element.
C
The sample was broken down by the electric current and formed a new substance that could burn. Therefore, the original liquid is a compound.
D
The sample lost some of its volume, but the gas still had the same chemical makeup as the original sample. Therefore, the original liquid is an element.
