 To study the difference between 
a physical and chemical 
change.
 Matter is everywhere. 
 Matter is anything that takes up space 
and has mass. 
 Matter is constantly experiencing both 
chemical and physical changes.
 A physical change alters the form of a 
substance, but does not change it to another 
substance. 
 It changes shape or size 
 It dissolves. 
 It changes phase (freezes, 
boils, evaporates, condenses) 
 Example: 
Making Orange Juice
 Physical changes occur when matter changes its 
property but not its chemical nature. 
 Physical property changes could include a change 
in: texture, shape, size, color, odor, volume, mass, 
weight, and density.

 Physical Change
 Chemical changes are changes matter undergoes 
when it becomes new or different matter. 
 It burns 
 Temperature changes without heating/cooling 
 It bubbles (makes a gas) 
 It changes color 
 It forms a precipitate
 When a substance undergoes a chemical 
change, it is changed into a different 
substance with different properties. 
 To identify a chemical change look for signs 
such as color change, bubbling and fizzing, 
light production, smoke, and presence of 
heat. 
 Example: 
Baking a Cake
1. Precipitation 
2. Color Change
4. Temperature 
Change 
3. Gas Production
 A chemical change occurs when fireworks are 
used. Fireworks are made of metals such as 
magnesium and copper. These change chemically 
as they light up the sky.
 Lighter fluid burining

Examples for Chemical Change 
 Sugar dissolving in tea 
 Logs burning 
 Breaking water 
up by separating 
it into hydrogen 
and oxygen
 Toast

 Write a paragraph about the difference 
between a chemical and physical change. 
Give examples of each.
