PLEASE HELP Sheila and Jerome are lab partners. They have the following materials at their table:

1 square of aluminum foil, 1 stirring rod, 1 beaker of water, 1 scoop of copper II chloride salt (blue color)

Step 1:Jerome adds all the salt to the water and stirs. The salt crystals disappears and the liquid solution turns a clear blue.

Step 2: Sheila tears up the aluminum foil into small pieces.

Step 3: Jerome dares her to put the foil in his beaker. They see the edges of the foil turn a rusty orange. As they stir, the beaker becomes warm to the touch and a vapor begins to rise from the surface of the beaker. Within a few minutes, the foil has disappeared and the liquid is now clear. There are orange-rust colored flakes floating in the liquid.

Q: Jerome claims that when the salt was added to the water it turned blue and the foil disappeared, these were chemical changes. He went on to explain that the chemical change was due to the fact that the atoms were speeding up. Sheila disagrees claiming that 1 is a physical change and 1 is a chemical change and Jeromeā€™s evidence is incorrect. Who is correct, Jerome or Sheila? Write a scientific explanation (CER) to support your argument.
