Why water is regarded as a compound although it can be separated into hydrogen and oxygen by passing an electric current?
The property of copounds is that they can be seperated only by hemical means and not by physical means. Water is a compound since it cannot be seperated by physical means. Seperation into hydrogen and oxygen is a chemical mean.
Why is slaking of lime regarded as a chemical change?
because new substance is formed in chemical composition & hence they cannot be reversed.
Is a change of shape or size a physical change?
Changes in shape such as the tightening a clockwork spring or a change in phase such as freezing water to form ice are regarded as physical changes.Changes where the different atoms of a substances are separated or combined with other atoms to form completely new substances are called chemical changes.Chemical changes, such as burning carbon in oxygen to form carbon dioxide are usually accompanied by physical changes such as increasing temperature.

Why do chemists use structural formulas for organic compounds rather then molecular formulas such as C5H12?
