Best Answer

Making ice cream and then letting some of it melt are two examples of phase change.

The freezing cold of the ice cream maker causes the liquid cream to give up its heat and turn solid. This freezing phase change is exothermic because energy (heat) comes out of the cream.

If you leave a bowl of ice cream on the table in a warm room, the heat energy of the air will enter into the ice cream and it will become liquid. This melting phase change isendothermic.

Memory tip:

exo - the heat energy exits the cream, which gets colder.

endo - the heat energy goes into the ice cream, which gets warmer.

What is edible in physical change?

A physical change is a change where the atoms might get separated but there is no change in it's chemical. It all depends on what you did with the atoms (For example, poisoning something is a physical change), and if the thing itself is edible.

No. Water freezing into ice is a good example of a "phase change". Ice can melt back into water, so we know that the phase change is not permanent!
