No, freezing involves phase change, which is a physical change. There is no chemical reaction, as the basic chemistry is unchanged
- it is still the same material in a different physical state.
What else can I help you with?
Is a substance freezing a chemical reaction?
Freezing is a physical change, not a chemical reaction. When a substance freezes, its molecules slow down and arrange into a solid structure. Chemical reactions involve the rearrangement of atoms to form new substances with different chemical properties.
Why are physical processes like freezing and boiling not chemical reaction?
Freezing and boiling do not change the chemistry in the process.
Is ice cubes forming in the freezer a chemical reaction?
No, freezing water is a physical change, not a chemical one since no chemical reaction takes place. The water molecule (H2O) remains the same even though the physical state changes from a liquid to a solid.
Is an ability to burn physical or chemical?
It is a chemical property, as it involves a chemical change.
What type of chemical reaction involves the use of water to break down biomolecules?
Hydrolysis is the chemical reaction that involves the use of water to break down biomolecules.
Does the explosion in a nuclear bomb count as a rapid chemical reaction?
No, a nuclear bomb involves a nuclear chain-reaction.A chemical reaction involves the orbiting electrons in an atom.A nuclear reaction involves the nucleus (hence "Nuclear") of an atom.
Is a bagel chemical reaction?
Bagels are a food industry product, not a reaction; but the production of bagels involves chemical reactions.
What is another term for chemical change?
A chemical change is also referred to as a chemical reaction. It typically involves the transformation of substances into new substances with different chemical compositions.
Is baking bread is a chemical reaction?
yes it involves some chemical reactions by yeast
What are the 6 types of stoichiometry problems?
Mass-mass stoichiometry: involves converting the mass of one substance to the mass of another in a chemical reaction. Volume-volume stoichiometry: involves converting the volume of one substance to the volume of another in a chemical reaction. Mass-volume stoichiometry: involves converting the mass of one substance to the volume of another in a chemical reaction. Limiting reactant stoichiometry: involves determining which reactant limits the amount of product formed in a chemical reaction. Percent yield stoichiometry: involves calculating the efficiency of a chemical reaction by comparing the actual yield to the theoretical yield. Excess reactant stoichiometry: involves calculating the amount of reactant left over after a chemical reaction is complete.
Is melting of lead a chemical reaction?
No, melting of lead is a physical change, not a chemical reaction. A chemical reaction involves the breaking and forming of chemical bonds to create new substances, while melting only involves a change in state from solid to liquid with no change in chemical composition.
Is oxidation an example of mechanical weathering?
no. oxidation is a chemical reaction that involves an atom or a molecule losing electrons in a chemical reaction. Mechanical weathering would be something like water seeping into cracks in a rock, then freezing and breaking that rock apart.
