1 Physical and Chemical Changes

2 Physical Changes Physical changes- A change that affects one or more physical properties of a substance but does not change the chemical identity of the substance. If you melt a block of ice, you still have H2O at the end of the change. 

3 Physical Changes Any change in size, shape, form, or state where the identity of the matter stays the same Example: cutting a watermelon into slices tearing up a sheet of paper sharpening a pencil Often easy to reverse with: filtration, magnetism, evaporation, distillation and centrifuge (spinning)

4 Physical Change Signs that a physical change is taking place
Change in Appearance Change in state of matter Observed without doing anything Measured quantity Key words to look for Melts Evaporates Bent Conductor

5 Physical Changes Some common examples of physical changes are: melting, freezing, condensing, breaking, crushing, cutting, and bending.

6 Chemical Changes Chemical changes, or chemical reactions, are changes that result in the production of another substance. 

7 Chemical Changes Signs that a chemical change (reaction) is taking place Bubbles form Odor released/ forms Fizzing occurs Something burns A gas is released Heat produced Light produced Precipitate (solid) forms Rusting occurs A color change occurs Key words to look for Burning Reacts Bubbles Tarnishes Explodes Heats up Sours
