Diffusion is a change of state.
A good example of diffusion is when you can smell something cooking that is in another room. Moisture in the food evaaporates and the gas formed is diffused and you can smell it.
I'm not sure that I'm right but i learnt about diffusion in science recently ;-)
What else can I help you with?
How can you tell the difference between a chemical reaction and not a chemical reaction?
A chemical reaction will do the following; Change colour Create smoke A non chemical reaction (Physical Reaction) will do the following; Change State Be able to change back to the original materials
What is meant of '. ' in chemical reaction?
The "." in a chemical reaction represents a phase boundary or a physical state change. It separates reactants from products, indicating a change in state, such as from solid to liquid or gas to aqueous.
Is melting a type of Chemical change?
no- melting is not a chemical change. It is merely a change in state of the same substance not a chemical reaction.
Is a change in state an indicator of a chemical reaction?
It is a change in physicalness
Is water a chemical reaction or a physical reaction?
Water is not a reaction at all. If you mean to ask if a state change in water is chemical or physical, it is physical.
What is chemical and physical reactions?
A physical reaction is were the current substance can be changed in state and then changed back easily to it's previous state, a chemical reaction is the opposite, it is difficult to change it back to its previous state.
What happens to make a chemical reaction?
In A Chemical Reaction the following take place a) there is evolution of a gas b) change in colour c) change in state d) change in temperature
Is reaction with acid a physical or chemical property?
A physical reaction is when no new substances are formed, there is a change of state eg ice melting to a liquid. A chemical change is when the reaction forms a new substance. eg gas bubbles. An acid reaction can be both. You need to look at the reaction taking place, look for change of state (physical) or any colour change or gas bubbles (chemical).
Reaction of copper and heat is physical change or chemical change?
The reaction of copper with heat is a physical change because no new substances are formed. When copper is heated, it undergoes a change in state from solid to liquid without changing its chemical composition.
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.
Why is a phase change a physical change and NOT a chemical change?
Because no chemical reaction is taking place. It is the same substance, just in a different state of matter.
Which observation does not indicate that a chemical reaction has occured?
A change in state, such as boiling or melting, does not always indicate a chemical reaction has occurred. It could be a physical change.
