Difference between chemical and physical change?
A chemical change is when the chemical properties of a substance changes and a physical change is when the chemical properties stay the same but the physical properties (shape, temperature etc...)
How do chemical and physical properties differ?
chemical properties cannot be determined just by viewing or touching the substance and physical properties can be observed or measured without changing the composition of matter.
How do you illustrate chemical change versus physical change in a venn diagram?
by drawing 2 circles and compare and contrast chemical and physical change
