it is a physical change
physical, only the size changes!
That 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.
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.
It is a physical change as the paper is still paper after you fold it.
