State one basic difference between a physical change and a chemical change.

In the double displacement reaction between aqueous potassium iodide and aqueous lead nitrate,a yellow precipitate of lead iodide is formed. While performing the activity if lead nitrate is not available,which of the following can be used in place of lead nitrate?

What happens when a piece of aluminium metal is added to dilute hydrochloric acid?

Give differences between the displacement and double displacement reactions.

Write the balanced chemical equations for the following reactions:
$(a)$ Sodium carbonate on reaction with hydrochloric acid in equal molar concentrations gives sodium chloride and sodium hydrogencarbonate.
$(b)$ Sodium hydrogencarbonate on reaction with hydrochloric acid gives sodium chloride,water,and liberates carbon dioxide.
$(c)$ Copper sulphate on treatment with potassium iodide precipitates cuprous iodide $(Cu_2I_2)$,liberates iodine gas,and also forms potassium sulphate.

What is meant by a skeletal chemical equation?
