    Study Notes

    States of Matter

    • Solid
    • Liquid
    • Gas
    • Cool
    • Melting
    • Evaporation
    • Freezing
    • Hot
    • Condensation
    • Sublimation
    • Deposition

    Physical Change

    • Any alteration of a substance from its original shape, size, and state
    • Temporary changes that can be reversed easily
    • Only physical state of matter is changed, internal composition of the substance remains the same
    • Examples:
      • Ice on heating changes into water, which on cooling changes into ice
      • Water on heating forms water vapour, which on cooling gives back water
      • Ice cubes → Water → Ice cubes

    Chemical Change

    • Permanent changes that cannot be reversed
    • Internal chemical composition of the original substance changes into a completely new substance
    • Examples:
      • Burning a paper forms ash, which cannot be changed back to paper and has different properties
      • Heating brings a chemical change in the burning of paper
