Physical changes, those changes that do not involve chemical changes or nuclear changes, can be reversed, though doing so may be difficult in some cases. To cite a single example, water can be frozen and then thawed. Or it can be boiled off and then condensed.

Can chemical changes reverse by physical means?

No, physical


Is a chemical change easier to reverse then a physical change?

No, chemical changes are typically more difficult to reverse than physical changes. Chemical reactions involve the creation of new substances with different chemical properties, making it challenging to reverse the reaction and return to the original substances. Physical changes, such as changes in state or shape, usually involve rearranging the same particles and are more easily reversible.


What occurs when the forward and reverse occur at the same rate?

the changes are physical


Which is easier to reverse chemical or a physical change?

Physical changes are generally easier to reverse than chemical changes. Physical changes involve a change in state or appearance without altering the chemical composition of a substance, so reversing the change often involves a simple process like melting, freezing, or evaporating. In contrast, chemical changes involve the formation of entirely new substances with different chemical properties, making them more challenging to reverse.


What kinds of changes in substances are always physical change?

The kinds of changes in substances that are always physical changes are changes in the state. This is the change from solid, to liquid and then to gas and the reverse.


Are physical changes temporary?

Physical changes can be temporary or permanent, depending on the nature of the change. Temporary changes, such as a sunburn or the effects of exercise, typically reverse over time. However, permanent physical changes, like scars or aging, may not revert back to their previous state.


What kind of changes in substances are always physical changes?

The kinds of changes in substances that are always physical changes are changes in the state. This is the change from solid, to liquid and then to gas and the reverse.


What are the advantages of physical changes?

Physical changes are advantageous because they do not alter the chemical composition of a substance, making it easier to reverse the change. Physical changes also usually do not require a lot of energy to occur, making them more efficient. Additionally, physical changes can often be observed directly through changes in appearance, texture, or state of matter.


What two physical changes occurs at the same temperature?

The change is phase from solid to liquid and form liquid to gas (as well as changes in the reverse direction).


Explain Why physical changes can be reversed but chemical changes cannot?

Physical changes are generally easy to reverse because NO ENERGY is produced by the substance.A Chemical change cannot be reversed because ENERGY is produced by the substance forming a new substance.


If frost forms on a window is it a physical chang or a chemical?

Physical- that is water vapor freezing into ice. It can be reversed (warm up the window) Chemical changes don't reverse.
