Concept Check
• To measure the boiling point of a substance, a liquid must be changed into a gas. Why is boiling point considered a physical property when a gas’ appearance is much different from that of a liquid?
Although the appearance is different, the substance is still the same. Its chemical identity remains the same irrespective of the physical state.

Concept Question 1
An electrical current is applied to 50 mL of water. After a period of time, there is nothing left in the container because: a. a physical change occurs resulting in the formation of a gas. Since water is a heterogeneous mixture, its components are also changed to gas. b. a physical change, evaporation, occurs and as there is no residue, water is a pure substance. c. a chemical change takes place converting water to its elements, hydrogen and oxygen. No residue is left because water is a pure compound. d. a chemical change takes place, but water is a heterogeneous mixture and its components are converted to gases.
