Is grinding sulfur a chemical or physical change?
Grinding sulfur is a physical change.
Is a lump of sulfur being crushed physical or chemical?
Physical change- it is still sulfur
Is melting a physical or chemical property of sulfur?
Physical - because melting isn't a change in it's chemical structure, it has just changed its physical state of matter. Generally (but not always) physical changes are reversible (can be taken back) but chemical ones cannot be reversed easily.
Is a yellow solid physical or chemical property of sulfur?
chemical
When something combines with oxygen is it a physical or chemical property of sulfur?
Chemical
List of physical and chemical changes?
physical changes~ cutting of paper, parked car, melting butter, flat basketball, and broken glass. chemical changes~burning gas, reacting iron with sulfur, vaporizing water.
Is sulfur a chemical or physical property?
Neither. Sulfur is an element by it self , that has its own physical and chemical properties.
Is heating of powdered sulphur a physical or a chemical change?
Heating sulfur (yellow form, S8) gives initially a red liquid which solidifies as a rubbery mass. This is termed plasic sulfur. This slowly reverts back to the yellow form. These changes are considered to be physical changes although the molecular form changes (it is still sulfur) from S8 to a metastable polymeric plastic sulfur. There is often ignition of the sulfur - to form sulfur dioxide this is most definitely a chemical change.
Is grinding sulfur a chemical or physical change?
Grinding sulfur is a physical change.
Is a lump of sulfur being crushed physical or chemical?
Physical change- it is still sulfur
What is a physical change that can be done to hair?
Cutting hair and shampooing hair are purely physical changes. However curling or straightening hair involve chemical changes too (i.e. sulfur crosslinks move). Dyeing hair is also chemical.
Is melting a physical or chemical property of sulfur?

When copper metal reacts with sulfur is it chemical or physical?

Is heating sulfur a physical or chemical change?
Heating sulfur is a physical change. You're not changing the chemical composition of the sulfur, just the temperature. Now if you heat it to its boiling point and and it changes to a vapor it's a chemical change because you've changed its state of matter.(Actually changing the state of matter of an object is still a physical change, as it does not change the chemical composition of the element)
Is burning of sulfur physical change?
Burning of sulfur (or anything else) is a chemical change, not a physical change.
What happens when you heat sulfur and copper together?
It changes into a compound. You start with two elements and then when you heat them it changes to a compound. A compound is something that has new chemical and physical properties
