A physical change because the chemical composition of the wood does not change.
The carving of wood is a physical change because the composition of the wood is not altered during the process. The wood is simply being reshaped into a different form without any chemical reactions taking place.
The rotting of wood is a chemical change because of many reasons. One of the reasons is because when wood rots, it produces mold, which is a new substance. The definition of chemical change is a change that produces one or more new substances. When the wood rots, you are unable to take the rotted wood and mold and make it back into wood that is yet to be rotted. So because the wood produces one (or more) new substances, the rotting of wood is a chemical change.
It is a physical change, because you're giving the wood a new shape.
No, because the paint simply sits on the surface of the wood, and there is no change to the molecules in the wood. Therefor, it is a physical change, until its dries then its a chemical change.
no, because the wood isn't changing itself, you are changing the wood.
it is a chemical reaction because a new substance is formed when the wood rots
Cutting a piece of wood is a physical change because the chemical composition of the wood remains the same before and after cutting. The change is only in the physical appearance and shape of the wood.
I guess it could be chemical, but really- it's a physical change
Chemical Because physical is when you change it your self
Flammability is an example of physical and chemical properties.
Sanding wood is a physical change because it does not alter the chemical composition of the wood. The process of sanding simply removes layers of wood through abrasion, changing its physical appearance and texture without changing its chemical structure. In contrast, a chemical change would involve a transformation at the molecular level, resulting in the formation of new substances with different chemical properties.
