It is a physical change as the identity of the substance remains the same.

Why is condensation of water vapor is a chemical change?

Condensation of water vapor is a physical change, not a chemical change. It involves the transition of water vapor into liquid water due to a decrease in temperature, without any change in the chemical composition of water molecules.


To condense is a physical or chemical change?

Condensation can be a physical process whereby a vapour becomes a liquid e.g. the 'steam' (water vapour) from your shower condenses on the bathroom window and runs down as water to form a puddle on the windowsill. Warm air can hold more water than cold air - the warm, vapour-laden air is cooled as it comes in contact with the colder glass and can hold less vapour so the surplus appears as water on the glass. In chemistry there are 'condensation reactions'


Is on a hot day drops of water collect on the outside of a glass holding iced tea a physical or chemical change?

Drops of water collecting on the outside of a glass holding iced tea is a physical change not a chemical change. It is simply atmospheric moisture condensing on the cold glass. Condensation is a physical process.


Is black crystals of iodine turning into purple vapour of iodine a physical change or a chemical change?

The transformation of black crystals of iodine into purple vapor of iodine is a physical change. This is because the change does not involve a change in the chemical composition of iodine; it only involves a change in the physical state from solid to gas.


Is steam a chemical raection?

No. Steam is water vapor. Steam is formed by boiling water, which is a physical change.

Is condensing a physical change?

Condensation may be physical or chemical depending on the context. Condensation is a physical change when it refers to the condensation of vapour on being cooled. In chemistry there are condensation reactions where two molecules react to form one larger molecule and these reactions are chemical changes.

The Change from a liquid to vapor is called?

The change of liquid the vapour state is known as EVAPORATION.It is a physical change ,because no ne substance is formed.It is only a change of state and the liquid can be recovered by Condensation of the vapour.


Is rain evaporation physical or chemical?

Physical change from liquid to vapour. The water remains chemically the same whether liquid or vapour.


Example of physical change and a chemical change?

when water changes to water vapour by heating is an example of physical change. when water is divided into oxygen and hydrogen by passing electricity is an example of chemical change.


What did the water vapour change into?

The water vapor changed into liquid water through the process of condensation.

Is the changing of water vapour to water called evaporation?

No, this change is called condensation.

No. Steam is water vapor. Steam is formed by boiling water, which is a physical change.


Is change in state a physical change?

Yes, because the chemical composition remains unchanged. Water is still H2O whether it is solid, liquid or a vapour.
