No, unless it reacted with a gas in the air around it. Melting is a physical change.

It is a physical state change from a solid to a liquid. It is not a chemical change, unless other ingredients are then added when melted - as usually happens when used in cooking, for instance.

Why is a phase change like solid to liquid a physical change?

Melting, the phase change from a solid to a liquid, is considered a physical change rather than a chemical change because when the phase change takes place, the substance that was melted does not change its chemical composition, and the process could be reversed to get the original condition of the substance by freezing (liquid-solid).


Is melting butter a chemical change?

Partly physical, partly chemical. Melted butter has different chemical properties than solid butter. The melting process, as with chocolate, is not reversible. Proteins in the butter can become denatured, and isomerization of lipids to trans fats occurs. Phase change is a common example of physical change, but chemical change also occurs in this case.

Is wax melting a physical or a chemical?

This is a physical change, not a chemical change! It is because all the wax is still all there as for if it was a chemical change it would be all gone!Physical. Its physical state changed from solid to liquid. It's chemical make up remains the same.Melting wax is a chemical change because a new substance is forming. Trust me im intelligent and we just learned this in science.physical change :)It is a chemical change because it gives off heat even when it is burning. heat is one of the signs that tell whether it is physical or chemical change. The signs are heat , light's ,gas,discolor.Melting was would be a physical change-- no chemical reaction occurs when something melts or boils. A burning candle is a chemical change, both can occur at the same time.
