No
Sharpening a pencil is a physical change, because there is no change to the chemical makeup of the pencil when sharpening it. It is simply chunks of wood being sliced off to reveal more of the lead.It is a physical change.
Because the pencil is made of wood and you only changed the size and shape of the wood or pencil and did not change what the wood is made of the substance
Breaking a pencil in half is a physical change, not a chemical change. The composition of the pencil, which is made of wood and graphite, remains the same even though its physical appearance has changed.

First off, its spelled "breaking". No, Its a physical change, because the pencil hasn't changed its chemical components, all you did was ruin a pencil. :)
Physical. If you were to cut that piece of wood in half what would it be? Still wood. There would be no chemical change. Just a physical change.
no new chemical products are formed .there is only a change in shape .the products after and before are same that is wood and graphite
Physical-it is still wood, just in small pieces
physical change
no, breaking wood is a physical change.If the wood was burned, that would be chemical change
It is a physical change, because you're giving the wood a new shape.
It would be a physical change because you are changing the shape of the wood not the chemical composition of the wood. However, you could possibly create a chemical change if you could hammer hard and long enough to burn the wood. Not likely, but it is possible.
