In the following list, only is not an example of a chemical reaction. the production of hydrogen gas from water the tarnishing of a copper penny chopping a log into sawdust charging a cellular phone burning a plastic water bottle

Option (c) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A chemical reaction is defined as the reaction where a chemical bond will break in order to form a new bond due to the formation of a new substance.

For example,

Here, NaCl is the new substance that is formed. A chemical reaction will always bring change in chemical composition of a substance.

The production of hydrogen gas from water, the tarnishing of a copper penny, charging a cellular phone and burning a plastic water bottle are all chemical reactions.

Whereas a reaction where no change in chemical composition of a substance takes place is known as a physical reaction.

For example, chopping a log into sawdust will change the shape but it will not bring any change in chemical composition of the substance.

Thus, we can conclude that in the following list, only chopping a log into sawdust is not an example of a chemical reaction.

space exploration has led to the development and technological improvement of many everyday items. (if this answer is wrong i will find the right answer) : )

catya your not at all which answer i've seen you do this on another question!
