Physical property
Letting a slice of tomato rot is primarily a chemical change rather than a physical change. During the rotting process, the organic compounds in the tomato undergo decomposition due to microbial activity, resulting in new substances and changes in texture, color, and smell. While the physical appearance of the tomato changes, the underlying chemical composition is altered, making it a chemical transformation.
The corrosion of aluminum foil by acid in tomato sauce is a chemical change. This occurs because the acid reacts with the aluminum, leading to the formation of new substances, such as aluminum salts, and the release of hydrogen gas. In contrast, a physical change would not involve a transformation of the chemical composition.
Tomato sauce is not a single compound but is a mixture of many compounds (and solvent such as water) tomato extracts with preservatives and some colors. Therefore it has no specific chemical name.
Raw tomatoes are green because of chlorophyll, a pigment present in the fruit when it is still developing. As the tomato ripens and matures, chlorophyll breaks down and other pigments, such as carotenoids, develop, giving the tomato its characteristic red, orange, or yellow color.
Tomato plants primarily use animal-mediated dispersal for their seeds. When animals consume the ripe fruit, the seeds pass through their digestive systems and are excreted in different locations, allowing for germination in new areas. Additionally, tomatoes can also disperse seeds through water movement and by falling to the ground when the fruit over-ripens.
Yes, when slicing a tomato your are changing the items physical state, not its chemical makeup.
nope!.. its physical change.. because its still a tomato...^^

Picking tomatoes from a plant a physical change or chemical change
The answer depends on what object or property, which belongs to the tomato, is being served.

No, the physical tomato is a fruit that grows on a talk (stem).

An unripe tomato is green, and becomes yellow and then red as it ripens. (Though I believe that there are certain specially breed varieties that produce fruit in other colours, including green, yellow, orange, pink, black, brown, ivory, white, and purple.)
try hanging them so they dont touch the ground
Tomato juice contains the anti oxidant lycopene. Tomato juice also contains carbohydrates, fats, proteins, vitamin c, and water. The main component of tomato juice is water.
Yes, a tomato smelling rotten is evidence of a chemical reaction. The breakdown of organic molecules in the tomato due to microbial action leads to the release of volatile compounds, producing the rotten odor. This process involves chemical changes in the structure of the tomato components.
