You can always undo a physical change by reversing the process.
i.e. when you freeze water it turns into ice and when you heat the ice it turns back into water.
Therefore it is a physical change.
It is a physical change because water's chemical make-up hasn't changed.
Ice is still water and can then be changed back into its liquid form
and water can be refrozen to solid ice.
(A chemical change changes the substance to where it can't go back to its original, like burning wood or a leaf changing colors in the fall)

I'd have to say physical, because it still remains water or H2O. And does not change into another substance.
The basic property of ice is the chemical compound H2O. The chemical compound does not change while the ice melts, nor when the water evaporates. The chemical formula does not change. Therefore, it is a physical change of the compound, not a chemical change.
Changing the physical state of water from a liquid to a solid
because it is change in state from liquid to solid, and can be easily undone. A change that is easy to undo is physical.
Freezing water is a physical change because the end product is different. Freezing water is considered ice instead of water.
Yes, freezing water is a change of state, which is a physical change.
Water freezing is a Physical change because there is no Chemical reaction involved. It just a chemical (the water) changing from one state to another.
Because the structure remain the same.
well when water changes into ice its a form of physical change
Freezing of ice is a physical change as ice can be turned back to water by heating. It has retained its chemical properties and underwent only a physical change (changing shape from water to ice). Hence it is a physical change.
Physical. Ice is simply the solid form of water. If it were a chemical change, then ice would not be water.
No, freezing is not a chemical change. It is a physical one. It (freezing) is reversable, and the substance that is changing state to a solid or from a solid is not undergoing any chemical changes.
There are 2 types : chemical change and physical change the substance has changed state, you can see the change so basically its visible
the water freezing is physical change
Freezing water is a physical change because the end product is different. Freezing water is considered ice instead of water.
well when water changes into ice its a form of physical change
The freezing of water is an example of phase change.
Freezing of ice is a physical change as ice can be turned back to water by heating. It has retained its chemical properties and underwent only a physical change (changing shape from water to ice). Hence it is a physical change.
It is a physical change. It is still the same substance.
Physical. Ice is simply the solid form of water. If it were a chemical change, then ice would not be water.
No. Freezing is a physical change.
Its a physical change because it can be reversed by re-freezing the water.
Melting ice is a physical change because the properties of the physical changes say that there is a physical change when the state of a material changes. the ice changes into water after melting .this is temporary change as the property says. you can change water back into ice by freezing.
Freezing water of is an example of physical change.
A physical change of freezing (or solidification)
