Dissolving is considered a physical change because the molecules of the solute do not change. In a physical change, the substance may change state or form (like dissolving), but its chemical structure remains the same. When a solute dissolves, its individual molecules separate and interact with the solvent, but they do not undergo any chemical transformation.
