it is a physical change
Chemical.
No it can't, because it would have undergone a chemical change, which is not easily reversible. so it is highly unlikely that it would. In addition, if burnt paper is touched, it would only crumple and turn to ash. Thus, your brilliant answer.
I would think it to be a Physical Change. Not chemical.
Chemical change: the composition of the initial reactants is changed. Ex.: thermal decomposition of calcium carbonate. Physical change: the composition is not changed during this transformation. Ex.: boiling of water.
A physical change means that only the appearance of the substance has changed. So if your tear up a piece of paper, its still paper so a physical change has taken place. If you heat or freeze water its only a change of state so its still a physical change. So long as the molecular or chemical structure of the atom/substance does not change it will always be a chemical change. H20 will always be H20.
When you crumple a piece of paper, a physical change occurs. The paper's shape and appearance change, but its chemical composition remains the same.
To crumple, bend, or tear paper is a physical change. Because crumpling only changes something's shape, it is a physical change.
Physical. You're not doing anything to alter the chemical structure of the paper. If you soaked it in ethanol and lit it on fire before crumpling it, that would be a chemical change.
A phsical change is something that can be changed but cant be changed back. for example: you can crumple a piece of paper but it is still paper. A chemical change means it has been changed perminetly so for example: If you burn the paper its ashes not paper. it was ashes but youy cant change it back into paper. Hope this helps :)
Tearing paper represents a physical and not a chemical change. Chemical bonds are not broken in this instance, but paper is physically separated (by force) from other paper.
It is a physical change because it is still a sheet of paper.
Well because the paper is flat and when you crumple it, it is changing and getting wrinkly and in a crumpled form,
Physical change
No, cutting paper is a physical change, not a chemical change. The paper's chemical composition remains the same before and after cutting; only its physical shape is altered.
Physical.
It is a physical change as the paper is still paper after you fold it.
Physical change. The paper is still a piece of paper; nothing happened to the chemical composition of it.
