Physical Change
Physical Change
A change in a substance that alters its appearance but not its chemical composition. The substance can be returned to its original form.
Chemical Change
Chemical Change
A change in a substance that results in the formation of a new substance with different chemical properties. It cannot be reversed easily.
Mixture
Mixture
A combination of two or more substances where each substance retains its individual properties.

Study Notes
Changes in Matter
- Matter can experience physical or chemical changes.
- Physical changes allow a substance to revert to its original form, unlike chemical changes.
- Mixtures form when two or more substances combine without changing their properties
- A homogeneous solution occurs when a solid dissolves completely in a liquid, creating a uniform mixture where the components are indistinguishable.
- Examples include salt and water.
- A heterogeneous mixture has visibly different components, like a mixture of oil and sand.
- Types of heterogeneous mixtures include solutions, suspensions, and colloids.
- Examples include salt water, egg and water, eg. milk
- Types of heterogeneous mixtures include solutions, suspensions, and colloids.
States of Matter and Changes
- Matter exists in three states: solid, liquid, and gas.
- Changes of state include melting, solidification, vaporization, liquefaction, deposition.
- Sublimation: A solid changing directly to a gas without becoming a liquid.
- Melting: A solid changing to a liquid when heated.
- Solidification: A liquid solidifying into a solid when cooled.
- Vaporization: Change from liquid to gas.
- Liquefaction: Gas changing to liquid
- Deposition: Gas changing into solid
Factors Affecting Changes
- Temperature affects the rate of phase changes.
- Wind speed influences evaporation rates.
- Exposed surface area impacts evaporation.
- Chemical changes result in a new substance with different properties. Examples of chemical changes include rust forming on iron and eggs cooking.
- Changes in color, formation of bubbles and precipitate are indicators of chemical or physical changes.
- Precipitate: A substance that is deposited as a solid from a solution. This often indicates a chemical change.
Additional Points
- Water freezes to form ice at 0°C (freezing point).
