physical change because part changes to a liquid or solid, while another part changes to a gas - however the substance is only changing state, so it would be a physical change

Does distillation produce a chemical or a physical change in petroleum?

it is a physical change


Is distillation a chemical change or a physical change?

Distillation is a physical change. It involves the separation of components in a mixture based on differences in their boiling points, without changing the chemical composition of the substances.


Is combustion a physical change?

NO its a chemical change for it can't be reversed


What will produce a physical change in one substance and a chemical change in another substance?

A physical change simply alters the shape, size, color and physical state (solid, liquid, gas, plasma state) of a material. Melting ice, boiling water, freezing water, mixing sulphur with iron filings, and even tearing paper will produce physical change. Composition of a substance remains unchanged in case of a physical change.A chemical change involves the breaking of old bonds and the creation of new bonds that hold particles (atoms, molecules) together. In this, a new substance is formed. Rusting of an iron, the formation of white ash of MgO when magnesium wire burns are examples of chemical change.A physical change can be reversed by using physical processes such as evaporation, crystallization, distillation, etc; whereas a chemical change can't be reversed using physical processes.


Are physical and chemical change different?

Physical change does not produce a new substance. Chemical change produces a new substanceIn a chemical change the atoms/molecules are chemically joined together so they are very hard to separate. were as they are easyer to separate in a physical change

Is the distillation of wine to produce brandy a physical or chemical change?

The change involved in the distillation of wine is chemical. The original chemical make up of glucose changes: (C6H1206 + Zymase = 2C2H5OH + 2CO2 + Zymase). The change is chemical because the glucose chemically changes into alcohol and carbon dioxide.

The distillation of sea water is it physical or chemical change?

The distillation of seawater is a physical change because it involves the separation of water molecules from salt and other impurities in the seawater using heat to evaporate the water and then condense it back into liquid form. The chemical composition of the water remains the same throughout the process.
