Yes, physical and chemical changes can occur simultaneously. A physical change affects one or more physical properties of a substance without altering its chemical composition, while a chemical change involves a transformation that results in the formation of new chemical substances.
For example, when ice melts (a physical change) in a warm environment, it may also dissolve some salts or other substances present in the water (a chemical change). In another scenario, during a combustion reaction, such as burning wood, the wood undergoes a chemical change to produce ash, carbon dioxide, and water, while the heat generated may cause the surrounding substances (like moisture) to evaporate (a physical change).
Thus, while distinct, physical and chemical changes can and often do occur at the same time in various processes.
