This chemistry quiz contains 25 multiple choice questions testing knowledge of chemical reactions and compound identification. Questions ask students to identify products of reactions between acids and bases or salts, such as reactions that produce gas, change in pH, or precipitates. Other questions test the ability to deduce the identity of a compound based on solubility, color changes from reagents, or other evidence from chemical tests. The final questions cover topics like the best methods and reagents for preparing specific salts like calcium sulfate, barium sulfate, or those insoluble in water.
