1. Changes in matter

2. Physical Change
Alters neither the nature nor the characteristic properties of matter. The atoms and molecules of the substance do not change

3. Chemical change
Alters the nature and characteristic properties of matter. The bonds between atoms are rearranged, and new molecules are formed.

4. Chemical vs. Physical change
Chemical change  can’t go back to original form
Physical change  can go back to original form

5. Nuclear transformation
The particle making up an atomic nucleus are rearranged and new elements are formed.

6. Chemical changes How to tell a chemical change has occurred:
 release of a gas
 emission or absorption of heat
 emission of light
 change in colour
 formation of a precipitate

7. Types of chemical change
Synthesis
Decomposition
Precipitation
Acid – Base neutralization
Oxidation
Cellular respiration
Photosynthesis

8. Oxidation
A chemical change involving oxygen or a substance with properties similar to those of oxygen
Ex. rusting

9. Combustion
Combustion is a form of oxidation that releases a large amount of energy.
Ex. Burning fuel
