What type of changes occur when water changes from liquid to solid?
It is a physical change because only its appearance changes. It is still water and not a different substance.
Is mixing oil and water a chemical change?
Oil floating on water is not a "change", so asking whether it's a physical change or a chemical one is nonsense. To the extent there's any meaning at all to the question, it's a phenomenon caused by the physical properties of the two materials.
Is water a physical or chemical change?
Water is not a change of any sort. It is a substance. It can undergo physical and chemical changes.
Is mixing oil and water chemical or physical?
It is a physical change because the oil and the water do not change in chemical composition.
Is Boiling oil a physical change or a chemical change?
Physical ... it's only a state change. Cool it and it reverts to its old condition.
When water changes phase is it chemical or physical?
Physical, as it remains water.
Is water turning to snow a chemical or physical change?
Changes of state are physical changes.
Classify as chemical and physical change-freezing of water?
Physical. changes of state (solid, liquid, gas) are physical changes.
Are physical changes reversable?
Physical changes are reversible. Water turns into ice cubes at lower temperatures and back to water at room temperature

It changes from a solid to a liquid.
Is frying of oil a physical change?
You can't really fry oil. You can heat oil, and you can use it to fry something else, such as an egg. Heating oil is a physical change, though prolonged heating causes chemical changes to occur too. The changes to the food are chemical.
Is the freezing point of water a physical state?
No it is the temperature at which water changes physical state from a liquid to a solid.
If water is boiling is it a chemical change or a physical change?
It is a physical change. All phase changes are physical, not chemical. The chemical composition of water does not change when it changes from a liquid to a gas, or for that matter, to a solid.
Is the boiling of water until it becomes water vapor is a physical or chemical change?
It's a physical change. All changes of state (solid to liquid, or liquid to gas, for example) are physical changes.
