Yes. When sugar dissolves in iced tea, it is a physicalchange. The tea does cease to be tea, nor does the sugar cease to be sugar. The water stays the same, of course. No chemical changes have taken place.

It is a physical change, because the sugar does not actually combine with the iced tea to form a new compound. You can prove this by evaporating the liquid and separating out the sugar crystals that form. In a chemical change, one or more new compounds are made by the rearrangement of the original compounds atoms. For example; Si + O2 = SiO2, this is a chemical change.
