No, melting is never chemical! Neither is boiling, freezing, etc. Those are changes of 'the STATE of matter' and purely physical.

Why when ice melts can you tell its not a chemical change?

The chemical structure is unchanged.


When ice melts what happens to its chemical composition?

When ice melts, the chemical composition remains the same. Ice is just the solid state of water, so when it melts, it turns into liquid water. The molecules in ice rearrange themselves into a more disordered state to become liquid water, but the chemical makeup of the water molecules themselves does not change.


Is it physical or chemical when ice melts?

When ice melts, it undergoes a physical change, not a chemical change. The molecules in the ice are still the same water molecules, but they are transitioning from a solid state to a liquid state.


Is ice melting an example of chemical?

No. It is water before it melts and it is water after it melts, so melting water is a physical thing, not chemical.

Are melting butter and melting ice cream are both physical change or chemical change?

They're both physical changes. Phase changes are always physical changes. Chemical changes only involve chemical reactions - a change in the identity of the substance. That's why phase changes are physical changes. Ice cream remains ice cream when it melts.


When ice melts why can you tell there is not a chemical change?

Melting is not a chemical change because the chemical formula of water remain unchanged.
