Chemical. If the component substances are the same at the end of the process, you have a physical change. If your object isn't made of the same substance at the end, it's chemical. Cooking denatures the proteins in the egg.

No the above is incorrect.

It is a physical change. The proteins forming the substance of the egg "denature" above about 60 degrees Celsius. Proteins are complexly folded molecules and the vibration caused by the application of heat causes them to unravel - Once untraveled they tangle up to form a solid and the processes irreversible but because the change is a change in shape it is physical not chemical.

What if you cooked the egg is it physical or a chemical change?

Is frying an egg a physical change?

no. frying an egg is not physical, because once you turn the egg into a solid, you cant change it back to a liquidish substance. Heating is a chemical change, so there for, frying an egg is a chemical change. Same with baking a cake. Once you add heat to a substance, like cakebatter, you cant change it back into cake batter there for making it a chemical change.
