Study Notes
Physical Changes
- Ice and water are different states of the same matter; ice is solid while water is liquid.
- Heating water increases its temperature, leading to boiling at a specific temperature.
- Boiling is a physical change, transforming water from a liquid to a gas without creating new matter.
- In physical changes, only the state or shape of matter changes, and properties remain unchanged.
Chemical Changes
- Rusting of iron is an example of a chemical change, where iron reacts with oxygen and moisture to form rust.
- Unlike physical changes, chemical changes result in the formation of new substances with different properties.
