1. Chemical and Physical Changes

2. DEMO
What happens when you mix sulfuric acid and table sugar?

3. The Difference
Physical Change – matter changes form but is still made of the same molecules, typically reversible
Chemical Change – a change in the molecules occurs, cannot be reversed

4. Physical Changes
Physical Change – matter changes form but is still made of the same molecules, typically reversible
Example:
An ice cube melting
Solid H2O  Liquid H2O
Both the beginning and ending products are made of H2O, the molecules stayed the same

5. Physical Changes
Physical Change – matter changes form but is still made of the same molecules, typically reversible
Example:
A bag of potatoes is
squished up to make
mashed potatoes

6. Physical Changes
The digestive system is very muscular and causes physical changes starting with chewing and continuing with churning in the stomach

7. Chemical Changes
The digestive system also causes chemical changes by using enzymes and chemicals to break the food down into its components

8. Evidence of a Chemical Change
There are five signs that a chemical change has occurred (remember, this means that your starting and ending molecules are different)
Change in Temperature
Change in Color
Change or Creation of Odor
Formation of a Precipitate (a solid material)
Formation of a Gas

16. How to Separate Mixtures
If you have a solution, you can separate out the different parts using chemical or physical methods.

17. Physical Separation
Physical separation techniques use the physical properties of the components to separate them.
Physical properties include:
State of matter (solid, liquid, gas)
Solubility
Boiling point
Melting point
Density
Electrical/magnetic properties

18. Chemical Separation
Chemical separation requires that you change one of the molecules in order to remove it from the mixture/solution.
