For the purposes of a basic chemistry course, blending food is a physical change since it typically involves only a change in particle size to create a mixture.

There are cases where blending food causes chemical changes, for instance when mixing the ingredients to make muffins. In this case, the baking soda and acid combine to produce carbon dioxide (among other things), and certain protein substances in the flour combine chemically to form gluten.

In the simplest case, however, the blending of food is a physical change.

Is ice being carved a chemical change?

No, melting ice is a chemical change where as carving ice is physical.... Another example is chewing food is physical where as enzymes in your saliva breaking down the food is chemical.


Plants changing carbon dioxide and water into sugar and oxygen a physical or chemical change?

Yes it is chemical because the sun is producing food by causing chemicals and substances


Is leaves produce oxygen a physical or a chemical change?

Its a chemical change. Leaves breathe in carbon dioxide. They use it to carry out the process of photosynthesis that is preparation of food for growth. Chemical changes involving salts, water, carbon dioxide take place in the presence of sunlight that results in the liberation of oxygen into the atmosphere. At night however in the absence of sunlight it breathes in oxygen to prepare food, since photosynthesis is not possible due to absence of sunlight.


What is the new substances that are formed during physical change?

in a physical change, no new substance is formed. for example liquid water. You freeze it, it becomes ice. when you boil it, it evaporates into steam. HOWEVER. Steam, ice, or liquid, it is STILL water. You only form new substances in chemical changes: cooking/burning food, reacting chemicals etc. : )


What is a chemical change?

A chemical change is a change in which a substance turns into a completely different substance that can't be reversed. A chemical change often happens when a substance burns (not to be confused with evaporation or melting of a substance), changes colors, a substance spoils or rusts, photosynthesis or respiration, and/or a substance tarnishes.Some examples are a bike rusting, burning bread to make toast, fireworks exploding, milk spoiling, a leaf changing color, mixing eggs and flour for a batter, baking a cake, etc.A chemical change will NOT dissolve, go through a state of matter (sublimation, decomposition, melting, freezing, evaporation, and condensation), breaking or tearing of a substance, and/or anything that can be reversed back.A chemical change is one in which one or more new substances are formed. Simple examples include burning and rusting.
