Understanding changes helps predict

material behavior Material Properties

change that affects one or more physical

Essential in manufacturing, chemistry, and properties of a substance without altering
materials science Industrial Processes Importance in Science its chemical composition
Physical Change

Knowledge aids in assessing and Definitions

mitigating impacts of changes in change that results in the formation of
substances new chemical substances, altering the
Environmental Impact original substance’s chemical structure
Chemical Change

Transforming raw ingredients into meals

through chemical changes Often reversible, such as melting and
Cooking freezing
Reversibility

Use of chemical reactions to remove stains

and odors Cleaning pplications in Daily Life Energy Changes Generally involve minor energy changes

Characteristics of Physical

Physical changes in food storage methods Changes state
to extend shelf life Property Changes
Preservation

Dissolving sugar in water

Observable change indicating new Examples Chopping wood

substances are formed Color Change
Boiling water
Solid formation in a solution indicative of a
chemical reaction Formation of Precipitate
Indicators of Chemical Changes
Physical and Reversibility Often irreversible or only partially reversible
Bubbling or fizzing suggesting a reaction
has occurred Gas Production Chemical Changes
Involve significant energy changes, often
Energy Changes releasing or absorbing heat
Significant heat release or absorption Temperature Change Characteristics of Chemical
Changes
New substances formed with different
Property Changes properties
Changes in size, shape, or state without
new substances ppearance Rusting of iron

Minor temperature change, if any Temperature Indicators of Physical Changes Examples Combustion of wood

Mixtures retain individual properties Mixture Homogeneity Cooking an egg

Change of State Transition between solid, liquid, and gas

rapid reaction with oxygen producing
heat and light Combustion
Combining substances without changing
Mixing their chemical nature
Combining simpler substances to form
more complex substances Synthesis Types of Physical Changes
Physical alteration in shape or size without
Deformation change in composition
Breaking down a compound into simpler
substances Decomposition Types of Chemical Changes
Reducing concentration by mixing with
Dilution another substance, often a solvent
One element replaces another in a
compound Single Replacement

Exchange of ions between two

compounds Double Replacement
