Physical change because the chemical state of the aspirin does not change, it is just crushed.

To crush aspirin into dust will only cause a physical change.

Coincidentally, crushed up aspirin has many advantages over its pill form, as it can be used for more things, while still having the original affects of aspirin upon ingestion.

Having had an interesting discussion about your question, we would have to say it is a chemical change. The appearance of your body doesn't change, the aspirin is just masking symptoms that you may have.

Because of the chemicals used in aspirin it dilutes your blood, but after you stop taking it your blood thickens again, so it is not a permanent change.

So basically- we think its a chemical change.

Physical change, because the chemical structure is not changed by crushing.
