A chemical change is when a substance is formed into an entirely new substance, with different properties, as such, a chemical change cannot be reversed. So in answer to your question, salt, in this case the solute (the substance that is being dissolved), is dissolved into water, a solvent (the substance that a solute is dissolved into), so you would think that a chemical change has taken place. But actually, a physical change (when something is changed, but keeps its properties, for example, when you break chalk in two, it is still chalk, only smaller), because if you heat the saltwater, then the water will evaporate, leaving the salt behind, in its original form.
