Wood and leaves rot to form humus physical or chemical?
Chemical change.
Is a leaves fall to the ground and begin to rot a chemical or a physical?
It is a chemical change. The substance of the leaves is changing.
Is rotten cabbage a physical change?
Yea! Cabbage will rot to liquifaction.
Does chemical lime rot?
The question has no real meaning, but the probable answer to what was intended is no. (What precisely is meant by "chemical lime", and what is meant by "rot"?)
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.
Wood and leaves rot to form humus physical or chemical?
Chemical change.
Is wood and leaves rot to form humus a physical or chemical change?
a chemical change
Is a leaves fall to the ground and begin to rot a chemical or a physical?
It is a chemical change. The substance of the leaves is changing.
Is wood and leaves that are left to rot and to form humus a chemical or physical change?
Both. In breaking down into humus, both chemical and physical change takes place.
Is the rotting of a fruit a physical change or a chemical change?
When a fruit rots, it's being broken down by microbes into a simpler substance. This change involves the breaking and forming of chemical bonds in the fruit and is irreversible (you can't get a fresh fruit from a rotten one). Also, new substances are made, so it is a chemical change.
Is a rotting apple a chemical or physical change?
When an apple rots, it's more of a chemical change. Sure, you can SEE the change in it..but the look, is not the actual change. It is a chemical change, catalysed by an organism. The apple wouldn't rot, if there were no chemical change.
Is rotten cabbage a physical change?
Yea! Cabbage will rot to liquifaction.
Is a tree limb breaking a chemical or physical change?
It is a physical change: the wood (mostly cellulose) is not changed by the breaking. However, the living cells (if any) in the branch will begin to change chemically when exposed to the air and cut off from the xylem and phloem in the rest of the tree. Eventually the cells will die and the wood will rot (chemical changes).
What experiment can I do that shows physical and chemical changes in fruit?
Let it rot. The physical and chemical changes are huge and can be easy shown when you compare a "good" fruit and a rotting version.
What are Things that change?
things that change are things are alive or were alive. anything really. wood can rot over time and plastic can melt.
Is a rotting apple a chemical change?
Yes, rot is a chemical change. When organic substances rot, they are broken down into new substances. Because substances with different chemical properties are created, the reaction must by a chemical one.
Does chemical lime rot?
The question has no real meaning, but the probable answer to what was intended is no. (What precisely is meant by "chemical lime", and what is meant by "rot"?)
