Is boiling water a chemical or physical process?
Water boiling is a physical change and not a chemical reaction. In a physical reaction there is no new substance formed as is the case with chemical reactions. In boiling water there is no new substance produced.
Is a boiling point an example of chemical properties?
No. Anything related to phase changes is a physical change.
What process is water boiling?
Boiling is a physical process, a change of phase.
What kind of process is the boiling of water?
Boiling is a physical process, a change of phase.
Why is the boiling point of water a physical change?
It's not a chemical change because the only the temperature and phase changes. The properties may be altered somewhat, but it the same chemical compound. No atomic bonds are broken or formed, there are no new substances formed, and none of the signs that indicate a chemical change are present. Some of the water is changing from a liquid to a gaseous state, and can be returned to a liquid state, unchanged, by cooling it.
Is boiling point a physical intensive physical extensive or a chemical?
When a liquid reaches boiling point it goes through a phase change, liquid to gas. Phase changes do not change the nature of a chemical so it is a physical change. This physical change can sometimes be caused by a chemical change though.
Is boiling alcohol and then considering the vapor a chemical change?
no, this is a phase change and is therefore a physical change.
When water is boiled is it a chemical or physical change?
Boiling is a physical phenomenon, a change of phase.
If water is boiling is it a chemical change or a physical change?
It is a physical change. All phase changes are physical, not chemical. The chemical composition of water does not change when it changes from a liquid to a gas, or for that matter, to a solid.
Is boiling water a chemical or physical process?
Water boiling is a physical change and not a chemical reaction. In a physical reaction there is no new substance formed as is the case with chemical reactions. In boiling water there is no new substance produced.
Is a boiling point an example of chemical properties?
No. Anything related to phase changes is a physical change.
Why is boiling water a physical change?
Physical change because the water molecules stay unchanged during boiling, also the germination phase helps this be proved correct=)
Are phase changes physical or chemical in nature?
A phase change is a physical change. It is not a chemical change.
Is a phase change of water chemical or physical?
It is a physical change. Frozen water ... ice ... is still water. Boiling water ...steam ... is still water. No chemical change takes place in either case.
What process is water boiling?
Boiling is a physical process, a change of phase.
Is a Chang in a phase a physical change or chemical Chang?
A change in phase is a physical process.
Is a phase change an example of a physical or chemical or nuclear or a covalent change?
Phase change is a physical change.
