If a substance undergoes a chemical change, its properties change. For example, water, when heated turns into a gas which has a higher volume.

Does volume change when substance changes states?
Yes. Usually when a substance freezes, or becomes a solid, it will decrease in volume, causing an increase in density. Water is an exception, which is less dense when it freezes/becomes solid.
When a substance undergoes a phase change it still has a definite A mass B shape C volume D temperature?
mass - the mass does not change
What can indicate a physical or chemical change?
physical=A physical change does not produce a new substance. chemical= A chemical change produces a new substance. u now have the answer........
Does orange juice change volume when poured into a different container?
Orange juice does not change volume when it is poured into a different container. Volume will change if the juice undergoes a process such as concentration.
How can you change density of a substance?
You can change the density of a substance by changing its volume. Density is equivalent to mass over volume. So changing the volume affects density.
What state of matter undergoes change in volume most easily?
Gases adapt most easily to changes in volume.
What is changed when matter undergoes a physichal change?
When matter undergoes a physical change, its physical properties change. Physical properties include density, color, solubility, conductivity, hardness, kinetic and potential energy of molecules, volume, pressure, temperature etc. One or more of physical properties change when matter undergoes a physical change. Remember chemical properties i.e. chemical composition and it's reaction with other substances remain the same. Also it's mass remains the same. When ice changes to water it's volume decreases, density increases, potential energy of molecules increases. Iodine is grey when solid but gives violet vapours on sublimation. Changing the pressure or volume or temperature of a gas results in change of one or both of the other quantities. These are examples of physical change.
How does the volume and density of a substance change when it is heated?
The volume of a substance increases when heated, causing a decrease in density.
Is volume a physical or a chemical change?
Volume is a physical quantity not a change. However CHANGE in volume is a physical change.
Does the mass of a substance change after a chemical reaction changes the substance from a liquid to a solid?
No. According the the law of conservation of Mass, it would be physically impossible for the mass of the substance to change. However, it is possible for the volume (amount of space taken up by the substance) to change, as well as it's weight (if gasses are released or molecules in the air are involved).
Does the volume of an object change if heated?
The volume of a substance increases when heated
Is volume a physical property or chemical?
Volume is a physical property.
