Some common chemical properties include: Combustibility: describes the ability of a substance to burn Combustibility: describes the ability of a substance to burn Flammable: the substance will burn when exposed to a flame. Flammable: the substance will burn when exposed to a flame. Light Sensitivity: some substances will become new substances when they interact with light. Light Sensitivity: some substances will become new substances when they interact with light.

Give one physical and one chemical property of a marshmallow: Physical: white, soft, yummy Chemical: flammable
7
Chemical and Physical Changes: In a physical change, the substance remains the same (change of state, dissolving) In a physical change, the substance remains the same (change of state, dissolving) In a chemical change the original substance is changed into one or more different substances. In a chemical change the original substance is changed into one or more different substances.
8
Chemical Change Clues: 1. A new colour appears
9
Chemical Change Clues: 2.Heat or light is given off http://fireworksfireworks
10
Chemical Change Clues: 3.Bubbles of gas are formed
11
Chemical Change Clues: 4.A solid material (precipitate) forms.
12
5. Change in odour
13
** These only suggest a new substances has formed, you must consider several clues to determine what type of change has taken place. **
14
Physical or Chemical Change? 1. Mixing kool-aid and water 2. Cloths catching on fire 3. Water boiling 4. Cooking muffins physical chemical
