Papermaking is not one single unit operation but a series of operations some of them such as pulping and bleaching etc. are chemical change while sheet formation, pressing, drying etc. are physical change.
Coloring on a white piece of paper is a physical change because the color change is reversible and does not alter the chemical composition of the paper. The paper remains paper even after coloring on it.
The process of making paper from wood involves both physical and chemical changes. Physically, the wood fibers are mechanically separated and broken down into pulp. Chemically, during the pulping and bleaching processes, chemical reactions occur to alter the composition of the wood fibers and remove impurities, resulting in the transformation of raw wood material into paper.
Tearing paper is a physical change because it does not alter the chemical composition of the paper. The paper still remains paper, just in smaller pieces.
ANSWER:Its a physical change. If you burned it and it became ash, its a chemical change. Physical change means it made no change on a molecular level. Its still paper, just in two separate pieces.It is a physical change, as the chemical property of the paper remains unchanged.
It is physical because the appearance hasn't changed at all and is the same paper still. For example, if you burned the paper that would be a chemical change because the paper turned into ash and is releasing gas which is a resulting chemical change that has just happened. Hope this helped :) -V
Tearing paper represents a physical and not a chemical change. Chemical bonds are not broken in this instance, but paper is physically separated (by force) from other paper.
It is a physical change because it is still a sheet of paper.

No, cutting paper is a physical change, not a chemical change. The paper's chemical composition remains the same before and after cutting; only its physical shape is altered.
Physical.
It is a physical change as the paper is still paper after you fold it.
Physical change. The paper is still a piece of paper; nothing happened to the chemical composition of it.
It is a physical change as the paper is still paper after you fold it.
It is a physical change.
Coloring on a white piece of paper is a physical change because the color change is reversible and does not alter the chemical composition of the paper. The paper remains paper even after coloring on it.

it is a physical change because you are doing something physical to it an example of a chemical change would be making an explosion the difference between physical and chemical changes is for physical your doing it to something that has physical properties like shaping something or cutting something maybe dealing with a sold or liquid but in a chemical change you are making something new you could say cutting it is physical but once you get the heart you have created something new with the paper a heart so that could be a chemical change because chemical and physical can happen twice even if your doing one task hope that answered your question
