one example of a physical change of matter is an ice cube melting into a puddle of water. Physically, it looks different; but, if you put the water back into the freezer, it's still an ice cube! Anytime an object changes appearance or shape without becoming a new object, it is undergoing a physical change.
Physical change is a reversible change that affects the physical property of form but not the identity of matter.
Physical change, is in comparison to a chemical change. A chemical change is one in which the chemical composition, not just the physical characteristics, of the substance changes through a chemical reaction (e.g. burning a piece of paper).
Physical change means changes in size, shape, color, mass, volume...usually in constrast with chemical change - for instance, the process of rusting where an element iron turns into compound with hydrate.
I'm not sure though, I'm just a painter by profession. =)
A physical change can affect the size, shape or color of a substance but does not affect its composition. The substances may be changed to another phase (i.e. gas, liquid, solid) or separated or combined.
Examples:
when ice melts
when sulfur is mixed with iron filings.
breaking a glass
dissolving sugar in water
Water can turn into water vapor when its in a hot pan.
A physical change of matter is when ocean water evaporates and tuns into a cloud.
it will malt in heat and it is an ice cube
Like water getting boiled into gases
a ice cube can turn in to water with heat
a ice cube can turn it water with heat
One is a ice cube
a change in size, shape or the state of matter is a physical change. True for A+.
Yes, matter can change states after a physical change.
Matter can go through change of state. This is a physical change from gas>liquid>solid. So, matter can has a physical change.
it is a physical change. there is no change in matter

a change in size, shape or the state of matter is a physical change. True for A+.
Yes, matter can change states after a physical change.
no physical change does not change matter
no physical change does not change matter
any of the natural sciences dealing with inanimate matter or with energy, as physics, chemistry, and Astronomy.
Matter can go through change of state. This is a physical change from gas>liquid>solid. So, matter can has a physical change.
it is a physical change. there is no change in matter
A physical change is a change in the form of matter but not the chemical composition of it.
A chaqnge of the state of matter is allways a physical change.
The properties of matter that are affected by a physical change is for example, there is a house then it gets destroyed that is a physical change.
A physical change does not change the identity of matter.
dd What is physical property that does not change with the amount of matter?
