    Study Notes

    • Observing changes in matter is a common occurrence in our daily lives, categorized into physical and chemical changes in science.
    • Physical changes involve alterations in the form or state of matter without changing the molecular structure, such as ice melting or cutting paper.
    • Examples of physical changes include molding clay, making a salad, and breaking a glass, where the composition remains the same despite the change in appearance.
    • Chemical changes occur at the molecular level, resulting in the formation of new substances with different properties, like rust forming on iron, wood burning into ash, or baking ingredients transforming into a cake.
    • Indicators of chemical changes include color change, production of gas, release of heat or light, as seen in reactions like baking soda and vinegar producing carbon dioxide gas.
