It is a physical change, because it does not change in substance. A penny, whether in its normal state or flattened, is still a penny. Similarly, if you drop a watermelon and it breaks apart, that is also considered to be a physical change because it is still a watermelon.
Things are considered to be chemical changes when the substance changes into something new, and is commonly classified as irreversible. When an object rusts, it is considered to be a chemical change. Chemical changes are associated with a temperature change, or a color change or bubbling or something of the sort. Physical changes deal with physical changes in state, for example, ice melting, or in the example you provided, a penny being flattened.
cause the value of the penny was more then wat it was worth
A good title for a penny experiment could be "Penny Power: Exploring the Science of Surface Tension." This title highlights the focus on the physical properties of pennies while hinting at an engaging scientific investigation. It invites curiosity and suggests a hands-on exploration of the principles at play.
100 penny makes a dollar. Every penny counts, my friend!
In this experiment, the control group would be the penny! The independent variable is the substance/water on the penny, and the dependent is how many drops the penny takes.
You pass a penny.You pass a penny.
Physical change
Chemical
Putting a penny in lemon juice would cause a chemical change because the lemon juice reacts with the copper in the penny to create copper oxide, which changes the chemical composition of the penny.
this is my homework just give the answer already!
Yes
Removing tarnish from a penny with salt and vinegar is a chemical change. The reaction between the salt, vinegar, and tarnish on the penny results in the formation of new substances that remove the tarnish.
Sugar reaches the copper and they form a physical change
Chemical.
It would depend on how enthusiastically you flattened it. Like a jeweller hammering out gold leaf, you could probably make it about a quarter the size of a tennis court if you had sufficient patience and skill.
Cleaning a penny with vinegar and salt is a chemical change. The vinegar (acetic acid) reacts with the salt (sodium chloride) to form a chemical compound that removes the tarnish on the copper surface of the penny. This reaction changes the composition of the penny's surface, making it appear shiny and clean.

Yes, the darkening of a copper penny is a chemical change. When copper is exposed to air and moisture, it reacts with oxygen and carbon dioxide, leading to the formation of copper oxide and other compounds that give the penny a darker appearance. This process alters the chemical composition of the copper, indicating a chemical change rather than a physical one.
