Crushing a rock is a physical change. It is still rock, just in smaller bits.

A chemical change is the change of one or more substances into other substances. A physical change is when the state or shape of matter is changed. In a chemical change molecules are combined or beak apart to form new substances.Rusting iron is an example of a chemical change. crushing a can or tearing paper can be an example of physical change.
Physical weathering is due to: rocks hitting other rocks causing them to break up from the action of frost and ice the action of wind or waves or running water the action of plants. Chemical weathering changes the composition of the rock and is due to: water dissolving minerals in the rock oxidation of metals in the rock
Mechanical weathering is physical changes that break down and/or cracks the rock, such as ice wedging, temperature changes, root growth, or animal activity. Chemical weathering is a chemical change that changes the chemicals of the substance to make a new one. Examples of chemical weathering include oxidation, acid rain, hydration, and carbonation.

Grinding something is an example of a physical change, because you are not chemically changing what the substance is, you are only changing the form of it. Another example of a physical change is boiling water, because the water is still water, it's just in a gas form instead of liquid.When something is grinded it is a physical change not a chemical change.
1. Crushing is a physical process.2. Burning is a chemical process.
Yes, crushing rocks is considered a physical change because the rocks are broken down into smaller pieces without changing their chemical composition. This process can be reversed by reassembling the pieces back together.

When molten rock cools and hardens, it is a physical change because the composition of the rock remains the same. The change in state from liquid to solid does not alter the chemical makeup of the rock.
No actually it isn't. Breaking a bone is a physical change. Think about it. Are you changing it into a different substance. No you're not, so it's a physical change.
No, the process of a rock melting into magma is a physical change, not a chemical reaction. The change is due to an increase in temperature causing the rock to undergo a phase change from solid to liquid.

Physical. It is still dirt/rock, no change to it's nature- just its position.

Burning a candle is a chemical change, as it involves a chemical reaction where the wax and oxygen combine to produce carbon dioxide, water vapor, and energy in the form of heat and light. This change is irreversible and creates new substances.
