The reason why turning on a light bulb is a physical change is because there is a process of electrical energy being converted into light and heat. You still have the light bulb intact and no new substance is formed.
No.
Turning on a glow stick is a chemical change because the chemicals inside the stick react to produce light. This reaction cannot be easily reversed, unlike physical changes where the substance retains its original properties.
A light bulb is not a change in and of itself but the process by which it gives off light is physical. While an electric current causes a given component of the bulb to glow (it may be the filament of an incandescent bulb or the vapor in a fluorescent one), but that substance does not change its chemical identity.
No, the color purple is a physical property of an object that results from the absorption and reflection of certain wavelengths of light. It is not the result of a physical or chemical change, but rather the interaction of light with the object's molecules.
When you break a light stick, it is a physical change, not a chemical change. The breaking of the light stick only changes its physical state but does not alter its chemical composition. This is because the chemical reactions that produce light in a light stick have already occurred when the stick was activated, and breaking it does not initiate any new chemical reactions.
No.

Most of the time the emission of light is a physical change but there are some chemical reactions which emit light as a byproduct of the reaction.
Its a chemical change hottie
The flash of a camera is a physical change, not a chemical change. A physical change is a change in the form of a substance without changing its chemical composition. In the case of a camera flash, electrical energy is converted into light energy, which is a physical process that does not alter the chemical makeup of the components involved.
NO its a chemical change for it can't be reversed
Heat, light, and change in odor can indicate a physical change depending on the context. For example, melting ice into water is a physical change because it does not alter the chemical composition of the substance. However, if a substance undergoes a chemical reaction that results in heat, light, and change in odor, then it would be considered a chemical change.
This is a physical change. When the electrons go through the filament (or gas), there is no chemical change, only the physical change of temperature. The electricity to power the light may be generated chemically (fossil fuels or batteries) or from a hydroelectric plant. The light from "glow sticks" is an example of light generated by chemical changes.
