In a chemical change, you produce a substance(s) that you did not have before, with a completely different chemical composition. For example, when you combine vinegar and baking soda, a reaction occurs, and when that reaction is completed, you no longer have vinegar or baking soda. You have new substances composed of a rearrangement of the atoms of the stuff you had before. Evidence of a chemical change can include, but is not limited to, the following: color change, smell, temperature change, formation of bubbles, formation of a precipitate.

What is always a characteristic of a chemical change but not always a characteristic of a physical change?

When a chemical change takes place, the chemical structure of particles involved changes (i.e. one or more new substances are formed). In a physical change, the physical state of the particles involved changes (e.g. a solid melts and becomes a liquid). The chemical structure of the particles does not change, and no new substance is formed.
