What happens to sugar upon heating it depends on how hot you heat it and how quickly. If you are exceedingly (!) carefully, it will melt and turn into a liquid. If you are not so careful, it will turn into caramel, which is actually slightly burned sugar.
When sugar is heated, it melts into a brown liquid, boils and turns into a black solid. Droplets of colorless liquid is seen at the cooler sides of the test tube. The solid is carbon.

C12H22O11 --> 12C + 11H2O

Mix calcium oxide with water and then what happens?
Well, The chemical reaction when calcium is placed with water is a fizzing. It fizzes and also "produces" heat. Not sure what the chemical formula would be called however. Calcium Hydroxide possibly
What is a chemical reaction that absorbs heat?
An endothermic reaction absorbs heat, an exothermic reaction releases heat.
What happens to heat during an endothermic reaction?
Heat is absorbed.
What kind of chemical reaction do you get when you heat copper sulfate pentahydrate?
The reaction is dehydration.
What can an exothermic reaction do?
Exergonic reactions are chemical reactions in which energy is released as heat.
What chemical reaction happens to salt when you heat it?
when we heat the salt there chemical reaction is takes place
What is a chemical reaction that happens in home and gives heat?
For example burning of gas.
What is the difference between boiling and effervescence?
Boiling happens when you heat a liquid, until it evaporates. Effervscense is some gas that escapes, due to some chemical reaction - but not necessarily due to heat.Boiling happens when you heat a liquid, until it evaporates.

What happens to the heat generated by a chemical reaction in a normal non-insulated glass flask?
The heat is released in the environment.
What is a heat reaction?
This the heat released during a chemical reaction.
The Maillard reaction is a chemical reaction between an amino acid and a reducing sugar usually requiring the addition of heat such as browning or carmelization And that reaction is the basis of wh?
flavoring
When heat is increased does the chemical reaction speed up?
The effect of heat on a chemical reaction will depend on whether the chemical reaction is exothermic (producing heat), or endothermic (requiring an input of heat). If the reaction is endothermic, then adding heat will increase the speed, but the opposite is true for an exothermic reaction.
Is endothermic a chemical reaction?
Yes. A chemical reaction which absorbs heat during the reaction. The opposite to exothermic which releases heat during the reaction.
Can a chemical reaction cause heat?
Yes, the signs of a chemical reaction are: gas, precipitation, heat, color change

What changes the rate of a chemical reaction or allows a chemical reaction to occur?
Heat?
Should heat be added for a chemical reaction to take place?
If the reaction is endothermic in nature then heat should be added to it,otherwise all chemical reaction neddn't heat always.
