state the difference between physical and chemical changes
Answers
Answer:
Physical Change Chemical Change
When a substance undergoes a physical change, its composition remains the same despite its molecules being rearranged. When a substance undergoes a chemical change, its molecular composition is changed entirely. Thus, chemical changes involve the formation of new substances.
Physical change is a temporary change. A chemical change is a permanent change.
A Physical change affects only physical properties i.e. shape, size, etc. Chemical change both physical and chemical properties of the substance including its composition
A physical change involves very little to no absorption of energy. During a chemical reaction, absorption and evolution of energy take place.
