The difference between temporary changes and permanent changes is as follows:

  1. Temporary changes are the changes that remain for a short period and hence, they are generally reversible. On the other hand, the permanent changes remain for a longer period and hence, they are generally irreversible.
  2. Generally, the physical properties of undergoing substances are changed in temporary changes while in permanent changes, the chemical reactions take place which changes the internal structure of undergoing substances.
  3. Examples of temporary changes are- boiling of water, melting of wax etc. Examples of permanent changes include- growth of living beings, burning of fossil fuels etc.
