Is production of heat or light physical or chemical change?
i think it would be physical because it is still energy.
Is a firefly giving off light a chemical or physical change?
It's not a change at all. It is simply what the firefly does. But it is a result of a chemical change within the firefly. A chemical reaction involves a transfer of energy. In this case, the energy would go into creating light waves from the molecules in the firefly, causing it to glow.
Light beam dimmer is chemical or physical change?
A beam of light becoming dimmer is a physical change since it is reversible. Recharging its source will make the light beam bright again.
5 examples of science?
Change in temperature, gaseous bubbles, giving off light, change in color, change in properties. These are chemical changes, but it is still five examples of science.
If a firefly glows in the dark is that a chemical or physical change?
It's a physical change. A chemical change is when a new substance is formed. A physical change is when something looks, feels, tastes, or smells different, but it's the same substance. You see the firefly is always glowing, it's just the fact that the human eye cannot see it because it is being over powered by the light of the Sun; but it's still the same firefly.
Is a light bulb on a chemical or physical change?
Physical change
Is switching a light bulb on a physical or chemical change?
Physical change
When a firecracker explodes giving off light and heat and breaking the wrapper into many pieces is that a physical change chemical change or both?
both
Is the production of light a chemical or physical change?
physical
Is emission of light a chemical or physical change?
Most of the time the emission of light is a physical change but there are some chemical reactions which emit light as a byproduct of the reaction.
Is production of heat or light a physical or chemical change?
Its a chemical change hottie
Fireworks exploding in the sky and giving off light are an example of a(n)?
chemical change
Pouring milk in you r oatmeal - Physical or chemical?
It would be physical change because the substance doesn't change. Signs of chemical changes would be absorbing, liberating (releasing) heat, fizzing, changes of color,or giving off light.
Is mixing two substances and light is produced a chemical or physical change?
chemical
Is light absorbed in physical change?
Heat absorption is a physical change. It can cause a change in state and/or a temperature increase, but the matter that is absorbing the heat does not change. It retains all of its physical and chemical properties that it had before absorbing the heat.
Is the generation of light by an electric lamp a chemical or physical change?
This is a physical change. When the electrons go through the filament (or gas), there is no chemical change, only the physical change of temperature. The electricity to power the light may be generated chemically (fossil fuels or batteries) or from a hydroelectric plant. The light from "glow sticks" is an example of light generated by chemical changes.
Ignition of matches a chemical or physical change?
chemical change because there is release of heat, light and energy.
