The free energy (delta G) is the measure of the amount of energy produced or consumed in a reaction. Enthalpy (delta H) is a measure of the amount of heat produced or consumed in a reaction. These two quantities can sometimes be the same. When they are not, the other missing component where heat can be consumed or produced is work.

The measurement used to describe how much energy is produced or used during a chemical change is called "enthalpy." It represents the heat exchange that occurs during a reaction and is typically denoted as ΔH. The enthalpy change can be positive (endothermic, absorbs heat) or negative (exothermic, releases heat) depending on the reaction.

A chemical equation can be used to describe a chemical change. For instance when iron combines with oxygen to form iron (III) oxide (rust), a chemical change has occurred. It can be written as a chemical formula: 4 Fe + 3 O2 --> 2 Fe2O3


Is it a physical or chemical change. Acids produced by bacteria in plaque cause teeth to decay?

This is a chemical change because the acids produced by bacteria in plaque are reacting with the minerals in the teeth, breaking them down and causing decay.


When a new substance is produced is it a chemical or physical change?

That's a chemical change because the structure of the atoms are changing. Chemical features can only be viewed through chemical change, by the way.
