physical change because part changes to a liquid or solid, while another part changes to a gas - however the substance is only changing state, so it would be a physical change

What will produce a physical change in one substance and a chemical change in another substance?

A physical change simply alters the shape, size, color and physical state (solid, liquid, gas, plasma state) of a material. Melting ice, boiling water, freezing water, mixing sulphur with iron filings, and even tearing paper will produce physical change. Composition of a substance remains unchanged in case of a physical change.A chemical change involves the breaking of old bonds and the creation of new bonds that hold particles (atoms, molecules) together. In this, a new substance is formed. Rusting of an iron, the formation of white ash of MgO when magnesium wire burns are examples of chemical change.A physical change can be reversed by using physical processes such as evaporation, crystallization, distillation, etc; whereas a chemical change can't be reversed using physical processes.


Is separation of 2 liquids by distillation a physical change?

Yes, separation of two liquids by distillation is a physical change. It involves the process of heating a mixture of liquids to vaporize one of the components, and then condensing the vapor back into a liquid form. This process does not involve any chemical reactions or changes in the chemical composition of the substances.
