Best Answer

No. Rather released. As during the physical changes in the states of matter, there is breaking of bonds involved. Whenever bonds are broken, the atoms of that matter come closer and energy they give out is more as compared to energy taken while breaking bonds. Hence, Physical changes at the level of states of Matter are always Exothermic i.e. RELEASING HEAT.

Is light absorbed in physical change?

Heat absorption is a physical change. It can cause a change in state and/or a temperature increase, but the matter that is absorbing the heat does not change. It retains all of its physical and chemical properties that it had before absorbing the heat.

Is heat a form of energy released during a chemical reaction?

Yes, heat is often released or absorbed during a chemical reaction. This is because chemical reactions involve the breaking and formation of chemical bonds, and the energy difference between these bonds is released or absorbed in the form of heat.


What are the signs that a chemical reactions had occurred?

Change in colour, energy(heat, light sound) is produced. or in the case of heat it can also be absorbed. a precipitate, or new product is formed such as gas.
