Study Notes

What is Chemistry

  • Chemistry is the branch of science that deals with the study of the composition and properties of matter and the changes it undergoes.

Types of Changes in Matter

  • There are two types of changes in matter: physical changes and chemical changes.

Physical Changes

  • A physical change is a temporary change in which no new substance is formed.
  • The chemical composition of the original substances remains the same.
  • Physical properties like color, state, shape, and size may change.
  • Example: Water changing into ice on freezing and then melting back into water when kept at room temperature.
  • This type of change is reversible, meaning the original substance can be regained.

Chemical Changes

  • A chemical change is a permanent change in which a new substance is formed.
  • The chemical composition of the original substance changes.
