When a can is crushed does it go through a physical change or a chemical change?

Yes, a crushed can has chemical properties. They are the same as those of the can before crushing. Crushing a can is a physical reaction and not a chemical one. For instance, if a soup can is made of steel, the steel can be chemically attacked by something like sulfuric acid. And this is true whether the can is crushed or not.
