The rusting of an iron pole is a chemical change. An example of a chemical change would be crumbling a piece of paper. When you are crumbling this piece of paper, the contents of the paper have not change and you are able to uncrumble the paper there is no difference except the paper has wrinkles. :) However in an example of chemical change like a metal rusting, you cannot un-rust it, it was chemically changed.
