A chemical reaction. You can tell because the smell of the apple changes. There are many other ways of telling if it is a chemical change. They are listed below: Temperature change Smell change Colour change If it is burning if gas is produced If it's state changes(from liquid to gas or solid etc.)

∙ 9y agoYes, rotting involves micro-organisms that feed on the apple. They use enzymes and other substances to cause chemical reactions that break down the various apple molecules into smaller molecules the micro-organisms can absorb.

Ripening is a chemical process.
Is browning apple slice chemical or physical?
chemical reaction.
Why is a rotting Apple a reaction in which energy in neither absorbed nor released?
The chemical energy in the reactants is almost equal to the chemical energy in the products
What causes an apple to rot?
Bacteria breaking down the items is what causes things to rot. When fruits such as apples, bananas and tomatoes ripen, they give off a gas called ethylene. Ethylene gas accelerates the ripening process, which will lead to over ripening.
Why does one rotten apple ruin the entire barrel?
This occurs because the rotting apple gives off ethylene, which speeds the ripening of the other apples.
Is an apple ripening a reversible change or a chemical reaction and why?
Apple ripening is a chemical reactn (new person answering) It is a chemical reaction because when you think about it, an apples ripening only happens once; apple buds on a tree, goes yellow, goes green, goes red-ish, goes juicy red, is either eaten or falls off the tree, goes mouldy and shrivels up. Hope this answer helped and was improved than the other answer! :)

The old saying one rotten apple spoils the whole barrel is due to chemical signaling in plants via?
release of ethylene gas, a plant hormone for ripening
What are the physical and chemical changes of an apple?
If you cut an apple and keep, the colour changes to brown. This is physical change. Apple has iron (in the form of ferrous salts). The colour is due to the formation of harmful ferric compounds and this is a chemical change (conversion of ferrous to ferric).
Is ripening an example of a physical or a chemical property?
It's not a property but it is a change , a chemical change.
A chemical use to hasten in ripening fruits for exports?
ethylene
