No. A sublimatory substance changes from the solid phase directly to the gas phase without passing through a liquid phase. Two examples are dry ice (solid CO2) and iodine.

How physical property such as mass or texture change without causing a change in substance?

Lets say you had wood. You can grind around the surface of the wood to make its texture softer or use a saw to cut the wood so each separate piece has a smaller mass. However, after these changes, you still have the same substance as before (in this case, wood) ^_^


Does a physical property burn easy?

A physical property is something like color, size, and state. The substance still stays the same! A chemical property is a change in substance. Burning is a chemical property because if you burn a piece of wood, it is a new substance and you cant change it back to regular wood. It is usually very hard to change a chemical change BACK to its original substance. The answer to this is No


What is a kind of chemical change?

Burning wood is a chemical change because the chemical makeup changes through the addition of heat. wood + heat = ash and other gases Pretty much when one substance changes into another substance and the change is irreversible, it is a chemical change.


Is drilling a hole in wood a physical change?

Yes, it typically is. Both the wood (sawdust) removed and the remaining block are still wood. They have not changed chemically. For that matter, reducing the whole block to sawdust would not make the wood a different substance, only a different form.


What is the substance that makes a plant woody?

The substance which makes plants woody is lignin. The wood part of plants ( bark in trees ) is made entirely of xylem which is the transport vessel that carries water from the roots to the leaves. Since wood is made of lignified xylem which is very hard, it makes it woody and hard.
