because during a water cycle only the state of the water molecules are changed i.e. first from liquid to vapour and then to solid (snow and hailstorm) or liquid (rain). since there is a change only in the physical state of water and there is no change in the chemical properties of the water molecule it is a physical change.

Is evaporation a chemical change during the water cycle?

The water cycle is a physical change. Water changes from a liquid in the ocean to a gas and then back to a liquid when it becomes rain. You must understand that water can be in any one of three PHYSICAL states, liquid, solid or vapor ( a gas ). Changing physical states is not a chemical change, but a direct result of heat or cold application.
