Answer the following questions to determine your understanding of chemical and physical changes in a blank change. The chemical bonds between atoms are broken and rearrange to form new substances is that physical or chemical changes next a blank changes is a change in the appearance or state of a substance without any change in its chemical composition is that physical or chemical Changes when iron rust it undergoes a blank change because new substances are formed is that physical or chemical change next when I smelts it undergoes a blank changes because it state changes from solid to liquid is that physical or chemical and the bowling of water is an example of a blank change because the state of the water changes from liquid to gas. Is that a chemical or physical change Cooking an egg is an example of a blank change. Would that be physical or chemical change? Which one is the answer?

1 answer

Let's fill in the blanks with the appropriate terms—chemical change or physical change:

  1. The statement "The chemical bonds between atoms are broken and rearranged to form new substances" describes a chemical change.

  2. The statement "A change in the appearance or state of a substance without any change in its chemical composition" describes a physical change.

  3. When iron rusts, it undergoes a chemical change because new substances (iron oxide) are formed.

  4. When iron is smelted, it undergoes a physical change because its state changes from solid to liquid.

  5. The boiling of water is an example of a physical change because the state of the water changes from liquid to gas.

  6. Cooking an egg is an example of a chemical change because the proteins in the egg undergo a chemical transformation that creates new substances.

So the answers in order are: chemical change, physical change, chemical change, physical change, physical change, chemical change.
