It is a physical change, known as a phase transition (see related links below).
There is no chemical change: the water molecules remain water molecules. They have simply acquired enough kinetic energy to escape the attraction of the molecules in the liquid and move (almost) freely.

∙ 9y agoIt undergoes a chemical change. It would be physical change if it changed in shape or color; a chemical change is when it changes states of matter. Actually it is a physical change because you can change it back to water!!

∙ 7y agoBoiling water, or just about any substance, is a physical change. A chemical change means that the atoms are rearranged - some molecules might lose atoms, others may gain them. This doesn't happen when most substances boil.

∙ 12y agoI believe its a physical change since it can go back to its original state (if it doesn't evaporate)

Is dissolving in water a chemical or physical property?
Its A physical change. When you boil water under a stove, The water evaporates and the chemical stays in the..pan or whatever you put in it.

Can water be separated into hydrogen and oxygen by boil physical change or chemical change?
Water cannot be separated into hydrogen and oxygen by boiling. Boiling is a physical change which means the molecule doesn't change at all--liquid water and water vapor are both H2O. Water can be separated into hydrogen and oxygen using electricity, this would be a chemical change.
Is it a chemical change when 2 liquids form a solid?
No because water condense on the side of a cold glass and then evaporate again. Further answer Really, if a gas becomes a liquid it's a physical change because the gas has changed its phase from gas to liquid. It's not related to water particularly.
Is water a chemical or physical separation?
Physical Separationreversible - can be separated by physical means - E.g shaking a bottle of Greek salad dressing, the different ingredients mix but don't form a new substance.Chemical Separationirreversible - can be separated by chemical means - E.g burning of wood or coal

If you boil water and itb t turns into steam is that a chemical reaction?
Nope - it's a physical change. The chemical composition is still H2O
Is something that burns easily a physical or chemical change?
If you burn something it is a chemical change, however if you melt of boil it, it is a physical change.

When iron rusts is that a chemical or physical change?
It is a chemical change, the iron is being oxidized and forming rust. A good way to think about it is if you can undo it then it is a physical change. For example if you put salt in water, that is a physical change because you can boil off the water and get the salt back. Source: AP Chemistry
Is a boiling point a chemical or physical property?
Boiling point is a physical property. This is because when an element boils, it changes its state of matter, which is a physical change.
Is Fog forming an examples of chemical changes?
The formation of fog is a physical change, not a chemical one.
