The water cycle is a physical change. Water changes from a liquid in the ocean to a gas and then back to a liquid when it becomes rain.
You must understand that water can be in any one of three PHYSICAL states, liquid, solid or vapor ( a gas ).
Changing physical states is not a chemical change, but a direct result of heat or cold application.

∙ 15y agoNo, it is a physical change, like all changes in the water cycle; * Physical change: change in the state of matter, change in size, texture, position, etc. * Chemical change: change in intrachemical structure and requires some energy input to reverse.

What is a type of change that does not occur in the water cycle called?
Chemical change does not occur in water cycle. There is no change in chemical structure.
Which phase change of the water cycle involves the release of energy?
Evaporation and condensation
How Does Climate Change Affect The Water Cycle?
Warming increases the speed of the cycle by increasing the rate of evaporation.
Does the water cycle depend on evaporation?
Yes water cycle depends on evaporation. It is the first step of water cycle.
How does waters state change in the water cycle?
Q. As water moves through the water cycle, it changes state as it ________or _______energy? A. As it absorbs or releases energy.
What property chemical or physical would best describe the process of water evaporating from the oceans to begin the water cycle?
evaporation is a physical change
What happens during the evaporation stage of the water cycle?
During evaporation liquid water is transformed in vapors (gaseous water).
Is the nitrogen cycle a physical or a chemical change?
It is a Chemical Change...
What is a type of change that does not occur in the water cycle called?
Chemical change does not occur in water cycle. There is no change in chemical structure.
Which process in the water cycle is non-existent during a drought?
evaporation
How is water in the water cycle different after evaporation?
The chemical formula of water (H2O) remain unchanged.
Which phase change of the water cycle involves the release of energy?
Evaporation and condensation
How Does Climate Change Affect The Water Cycle?
Warming increases the speed of the cycle by increasing the rate of evaporation.
How does water get into the atmosphere during the water cycle?
I'm pretty sure the answer is evaporation.
Is water cycle the same as evaporation?
No, Evaporation is a step in the water cycle.
What type of change is water vapor?
Evaporation is the part in the water cycle that water vapor is brought by.
Does the water cycle depend on evaporation?
Yes water cycle depends on evaporation. It is the first step of water cycle.
