Describe what happens to a substance when it goes through a physical change?
As a generalization it will change one or more of its physical properties. To be more specific, the substance will change form or shape. Form meaning phase of matter (solid, liquid, etc...). Shape coud refer to just moving its components around into a different geometrical arrangement, however this gets trickier once you get to the atomic level.
What happens during a physical change?
In a physical change, color, shape, state, temperature, or texture can change. None of these effect the changes substance's chemical properties.
When a substance changes from one state to another is it the same shape and size?
When the state changes, it won't be the same shape because there are different properties for each of the states, e.g. liqiud can fill any shape but moves to the bottom, solid can't move and gas fills any shape. It will have the same amount of substance because it is still the same thing, just in a different state.
What is the state of matter in which the volume and shape are of a substance are fixed?
A SOLID. They have a fixed volume mass and shape because the particles are so closely packed together.
What state of matter does not have its own volume or shape?
Liquid, take shape of container in which they are kept.
How do chemicals differ from physical changes?
When matter undergoes a chemical change, the composition of the matter changes. When matter undergoes a physical change, composition of the matter remains the same.
When a substance changes to form a new substance with new properties it undergoes a what change.?
New substances are formed when matter undergoes a chemical reaction.
The change of size or shape of a substance is a?
chemical matter.
How do the particles in matter affect its properties?
when the particles gain energy,they move more vigorously.pressure increases but the volume remains constant.therefore,the matter changes shape as the particles use this energy to break the attractive forces between them....
The state of matter of a substance that has a definite shape and volume?
Solid
What changes the size and shape of a substance but nnot what is made of?

What happens to the particles when the substance changes shape?
yes! particles of a substance assume different shapes and sizes
What is a non-fluid?
