Water in solid form, as ice, is chemically H2O
In liquid form it is also only H2O
In gas form, as water vapour, it is still only H2O, albeit that the molecules/atoms have greater activity and that the volume is much greater than that of water in the liquid state.
Unlike a chemical change, evaporation does not change the arrangement of atoms, it just adds energy to them. An example of a chemical change would be electrolysis, which separates water into Hydrogen and Oxygen.
The definition of a chemical change is a change in the chemical nature of a substance. In other words, a new substance is created. Water(H2O) evaporates and becomes steam. It is a physical change because the steam is simply a different form of H2O.
Water molecules, no matter their form (solid, liquid gaseous) have the chemical formula H2O. This chemical formula and the arangement of the atoms in the molecule (tetrahedral) never changes. So there we call that no chemical change. However, as the temperature of water molecules change, we notice a change in the physical characteristics of the molecule (eventhough the molecule is chemically the same old water molecule).
Nothing is chemically changed when water goes from liquid-->gas. All that's happening is the molecules moving faster.
H20(l)-->H20(g)
Because its non- flammable and it is reactive
When water is a puddle on the table, it is H2O.
When it evaporates into the air, it is still H2O.
The change is physical, not chemical.
Evaporation is a physical change because the substance evaporating does not undergo a change in chemical composition.
Evaporation doesn't involve a chemical process, a change of the molecule.
Physical
No, evaporation causes a change in the state of matter (liquid to solid) which is a physical change
Evaporation is a physical change.
When water evaporates, it is a physical change.You must understand that water can be in any one of three PHYSICAL states, liquid, solid or vapor ( a gas ).Changing physical states is not a chemical change, but a direct result of heat or cold application.
That is a physical change.
Evaporation is a physical change.
It is a physical change because the change is reversible.
This is a physical change.

it is a physical change because it is not making a new substance. It is just changing the size/shape
