    Study Notes

    Physical and Chemical Changes

    • Physical changes occur due to changes in parameters like temperature and pressure, and are often reversible.
    • The composition of matter remains the same in a physical change.
    • Examples of physical changes:
      • Transformation of ice into water on heating
      • Transformation of water into ice on cooling
    • Chemical changes occur when the composition of matter changes during a process.
    • Chemical reactions involve bond breaking and formation of new bonds, resulting in new substances.
    • The substances involved in a chemical reaction are called reactants, and the resulting substances are called products.
    • Example of a chemical reaction:
      • Combustion of coal in air to form carbon dioxide gas
