1. PHYSICAL AND CHEMICAL CHANGES

2. Physical Properties  Can be observed using the five senses  Examples:  shape  density  solubility  odor  melting point  boiling point  color

3. Chemical Properties  can be recognized only when substances do (or do not) react chemically with another substance  examples:  reacting with oxygen burning: produces light and heat rust apple turning brown  reacting with acids bases react with acids to form water and neutralize

4. Comparing Physical and Chemical Properties SubstancePhysical PropertyChemical Property HeliumLess dense than airNonflammable WoodGrainy textureFlammable Baking sodaWhite powderReacts with vinegar to produce bubbles Powdered sugarWhite powderDoes not react with vinegar Rubbing alcoholClear liquidFlammable Red food coloringRed colorReacts with bleach and loses color IronMalleableReacts with oxygen You can observe physical properties without changing the identity of the substance. You can observe chemical properties only in situations in which the identity of the substance could change.

5. Physical Changes  Change that affects one or more physical properties of a substance  Examples of Physical Change  Melting butter  Dissolving sugar  Freezing water for ice cubes  Sanding a piece of wood  Cutting your hair  Mixing oil and vinegar

6. Can Physical Changes Be Undone?  Because physical changes do not change the identity of substances, they are often easy to undo.  How can you undo the physical changes from the previous slide?

7. Chemical Changes  One or more substances are changed into entirely new substances with different properties  Chemical changes will or will not occur as described by the chemical properties of substances.  A chemical property describes a substance’s ability to go through a chemical change; a chemical change is the actual process in which that substance changes into another substance.

9. Chemical Changes: Baking a Cake  When you bake a cake you combine eggs, flour, sugar, butter and other ingredients  Each ingredient has its own set of properties  If you mix them together and bake the batter in the oven, you get something completely different

10. Clues to Chemical Changes  Chemical changes often cause color changes, fizzing or foaming, heat, or the production of sound, light, or odor.  In the cake example, you would probably smell the aroma of the cake as it baked. If you looked into the oven you would see the batter rise and turn brown. When you cut the finished cake, you would see the spongy texture created by gas bubbles that formed in the batter (if you baked it right).

11. Clues to Chemical Changes and Can Chemical Changes Be Undone?  All of these clues are signals of chemical changes  Are the clues and chemical changes the same thing?  No, the clues just result from the chemical changes.  Because new substances are formed, you cannot reverse chemical changes using physical means.  You can’t uncrumple or iron out a physical change.  Most of the chemical changes you see in your daily life, such as a cake baking or milk turning sour, would be difficult to reverse.

13. Think/Pair/Share  Classify each of the following properties as either physical or chemical: 1. Reacts with Water2. Dissolves in acetone 3. Is Blue4. Doesn’t react with Hydrogen  List 3 clues that indicate a chemical change might be taking place.  What is a chemical change that might occur when preparing a meal?
