A physical change is when something reacts with water to form a gas. For example, when magnesium reacts with water vapor, it will form hydrogen gas and magnesium hydroxide.

One example of a substance that reacts with water to form a gas is sodium metal. When sodium reacts with water, it produces hydrogen gas and sodium hydroxide. This is a highly exothermic reaction that can be dangerous if not conducted properly.
