The tires on the car seem to be getting flat when the weather turns cold physical or chemical change?

The air pressure decreasing in the tires due to colder temperature is a physical change. The rubber in the tires contracts when it gets cold, causing the pressure to drop, but no new substances are formed.


Is driving a car a chemical or physical reaction?

Driving a car involves both chemical and physical reactions. The combustion of fuel in the engine is a chemical reaction that produces the energy needed to move the car, while the physical interactions between the tires and the road surface enable the car to accelerate, brake, and turn.


A tire is inflated with air?

Usually the tire pressure does increase as they heat up with friction. However, this is very small amount and is much reduced with the newer design of tires. I would estimate the tires only heat up a couple of degrees. They may also heat up due to the heat of the highway on summer days. - - - - - No...tires heat up a LOT when you drive, because of heat caused by friction. The air pressure goes up 1 psi per 10 degrees temperature increase. What has changed with radial tires, is their handling doesn't radically change with air pressure like it did with bias-ply tires.


Are car tires made up of an element?

Car tires are made up of a combination of elements, including rubber, carbon black, and various chemical additives. The main component of tires is rubber, which is a polymer made from molecules containing mostly carbon and hydrogen atoms. These elements provide tires with their elasticity, durability, and grip on the road.

Is smoke formed from burning rubber a physical change?

Yes. Burning tires break down the rubber molecules into CO2 and other noxious gasses and other compounds are formed when the rubber lattice breaks into pieces as it oxidizes and burns.


How many miles before you change tires?

You change tires when they are worn out, not at a set mileage.


Does Ford E350 fit into garage?

Yes. Ford E350 is 85 inches tall and a standard garage door is 83 inches high. Deflate your tires from the factory 80PSI to just 5PSI and you will lower the van by 3 inches and it will clear with 1 inch of clearance. No, deflating your tires will not ruin your tires because the tires are "E" rated and are strong enough to be driven with only 5PSI of air in them.
