Physical and Chemical Changes Quiz

Physical and Chemical Changes

• A characteristic of a physical change is that it involves a change in state, such as ice melting into water or water boiling into steam, where the substance remains the same but its physical properties change.

Chemical Changes

• An example of a chemical change is rusting of iron, where iron reacts with oxygen to form iron oxide, resulting in a change in the substance's composition.

Indicators of Chemical Change

• A common indicator of a chemical change is the production of heat, light, or gas, such as the burning of gasoline in a car engine, which releases heat and light.
