The small bit of water inside the kernel turns to steam, which rapidly expands, causing the material to burst into the popped kernel. So the expansion and bursting is physical. But the heat does perform some chemical changes as well.
What else can I help you with?
What are two physical properties and two chemical properties of a bag of microwave popcorn before popping and after?
Two physical properties of a bag of microwave popcorn before popping are its mass and volume, which remain constant before and after popping. Two chemical properties that change after popping are the composition of the kernels, which undergo a chemical reaction to turn into fluffy popcorn, and the release of aroma compounds due to the Maillard reaction during popping.
Is popping pocorn a chemical change?
yeah, because you can't make the popcorn seeds again.
When popcorn is burned why is that a chemical change?
When popcorn is burned, it undergoes a chemical change because the heat causes a chemical reaction that changes the chemical composition of the popcorn. This results in the formation of new compounds, such as carbon, that are different from the original chemical composition of the popcorn.
Is density chemical change or physical change?
It is a physical change.Density is not a chemical property. Instead, it is a physical property.
What is the diffrenece between a physical change and a chemical change?
Physical change is a change in the structure. Chemical change is a change in the composition. Melting is a physical change. Complexing is a chemical change.
Is popping popcorn a physical?
Chemical change

Is making popcorn a physical or a chemical change?
The act of popcorn popping is a physical rather than chemical change. Air within the popcorn seed is heated, causing it to build up to higher pressure than the air outside. As a result of this, the air is explosively released to the area of lower pressure, in effect popping the popcorn.
Is a balloon popping a physical or chemical?
physical change
Is mixing popcorn steam a physical or chemical change?
it is a chemical change
Is melting butter for popcorn a chemical or physical?
physical change
Is popping pocorn a chemical change?
yeah, because you can't make the popcorn seeds again.
Is mealting butter from popcorn chemical or physical?
Melting butter for popcorn is a physical change because the butter undergoes a change in state from solid to liquid without any chemical composition changes.
Is popcorn popping physical or chemical?
Chemical - a physical change can be reversed , e.g Freezing water, melting chocolate. But something like popping corn is ireversible like baking a cake or boiling a egg. Hope this helps.
A skillet is lined with a thin layer of cooking oil followed by a layer of un-popped popcorn kernels upon heating the kernels all pop thereby escaping the skillet identify physical or chemical Chan?
It would be a chemical change because you can't reverse your action of popping the kernels , which can define a chemical change.
Why is popping popcorn a physical change?
Once you make it....you won't get that small seed back where as water can Evaporate and then Condense again, which is a Physical Change...so that is why popcorn is a Chemical Change
Why is popping a balloon an example of a physical change?
Popping a balloon is a physical change because the balloon retains its original chemical composition even after it has been popped. The change is reversible, as the pieces of the popped balloon can be put back together and reinflated.
