A physical change is a change in the physical state of a substance. An example of a physical change is water turning to ice (a solid) when frozen. Its state of matter has changed, but it is still the same substance (water).
A chemical change is a change in the chemical structure of a substance(s). For example, when oxygen and magnesium react, they form magnesium oxide (a different substance). The chemical state of both the oxygen and magnesium atoms involved has changed.
Equations:
Oxygen + Magnesium --> Magnesium Oxide
O2 + 2Mg --> 2MgO
No, chemical changes cannot be reversed by physical changes. Chemical changes involve the formation of new substances with different properties, while physical changes only affect the state or appearance of a substance without changing its chemical composition. Once a chemical change occurs, it cannot be undone by a physical change.
Lustre is a physical property, because... Look up a few definitions of "chemical property." In every one you will find that it involves chemical reactions, or changes in the identity of a substance. Lustre (shininess) is a property that can be observed without any chemical changes to the substance, so it can't be a chemical property.
A physical change is a change in chemical composition. A physical change is a change where chemical composition is not altered. Not all chemical changes are accompanied by a physical change, but some are. The same is true for the reverse.
The nitrogen cycle involves both physical and chemical changes. Physical changes include nitrogen fixation by bacteria and nitrification, while chemical changes include denitrification and ammonification.
Cooking involve chemical reactions.
There are no physical changes. there are only chemical changes.
physical or chemical changes
Physical Changes
Not all chemical changes are accompanied by a visible physical change. Most chemical changes however will be accompanied by a physical change.
Reacting can involve both physical changes and chemical changes. Physical changes involve alterations in the physical state of a substance without changing its chemical composition, while chemical changes involve the formation of new substances with different chemical compositions.
No, chemical changes cannot be reversed by physical changes. Chemical changes involve the formation of new substances with different properties, while physical changes only affect the state or appearance of a substance without changing its chemical composition. Once a chemical change occurs, it cannot be undone by a physical change.
Physical changes are changes that affect the form of a chemical substance, such as changes in state or shape, without changing its chemical composition. Chemical changes, on the other hand, result in the formation of new substances with different chemical properties. Physical changes are usually reversible, while chemical changes are often irreversible.
Chemical and physical changes are part of methods applied in science.
chemical
physical changes do not change the chemical properties of a substance
yes it can be called physical and chemical reaction
no
