Yes, the process of distilling water is a physical change. During distillation, water is heated to create steam, which is then cooled and condensed back into liquid form, leaving impurities behind. This process does not alter the chemical composition of the water itself, meaning it remains H₂O throughout. Thus, it is classified as a physical change rather than a chemical one.
Dissolving tablets is a physical change, as they can be distilled out again.
The swelling and bursting of a red blood cell placed in distilled water is a physical change. This is because the cell's structure is altered due to the osmotic pressure causing water to move into the cell, leading to swelling and ultimately bursting. No new substances are formed in this process.

If your distilled water is turning brown when heated, it wasn't distilled very well.
No, it is a physical change. The water and gasoline retain their chemical and physical properties.

Distilling water is a physical change. When water is distilled, any trace impurities will left in the container it was distilled from. These impurities were not chemically bonded to the water, instead, they formed a mixture with the water, and a mixture is always created physically.
Boiling is a physical phenomenon, a change of phase.
It is a physical change.
No, it is a physical change. The water and gasoline retain their chemical and physical properties.
No, distilled water is distilled water.
Condensation of water is a physical change.
Boiling water is a physical change because it does not change the chemical composition of the water.
