Physical & chemical change

Difference between physical and chemical changes

1. NEENA HARIDAS
Physical Science Reg. No: 13971014

2. To study the difference between
a physical and chemical
change.

3. Matter is everywhere.
Matter is anything that takes up space
and has mass.
Matter is constantly experiencing both
chemical and physical changes.

4. A physical change alters the form of a
substance, but does not change it to another
substance.
It changes shape or size
It dissolves.
It changes phase (freezes,
boils, evaporates, condenses)
Example:
Making Orange Juice

5. Physical changes occur when matter changes its
property but not its chemical nature.
Physical property changes could include a change
in: texture, shape, size, color, odor, volume, mass,
weight, and density.

8. Physical Change
Ice melting?

9. Physical

wood?

10. Disappearing
puddle?
Physical

11. Dry ice?
Physical Change

12. Chemical changes are changes matter undergoes
when it becomes new or different matter.
It burns
Temperature changes without heating/cooling
It bubbles (makes a gas)
It changes color
It forms a precipitate

13. When a substance undergoes a chemical
change, it is changed into a different
substance with different properties.
To identify a chemical change look for signs
such as color change, bubbling and fizzing,
light production, smoke, and presence of
heat.
Example:
Baking a Cake

14. 1.Precipitation
2. Color Change

15. 4. Temperature
Change
3. Gas Production

16. A chemical change occurs when fireworks are
used. Fireworks are made of metals such as
magnesium and copper. These change chemically
as they light up the sky.
