1. Identify an example of a physical
property.

2. Identify an example of a chemical
property.

A glowing
wooden splint
placed in a test
tube will
continue to burn
until the O2 is
used up.
3. Identify the type of change
(physical or chemical) in which a
new substance is produced.
• Chemical change
When the Statue of Liberty
was built in 1886, the copper
metal was copper in
color. By 1900, it had turned
a turquoise color because
the copper underwent a
chemical change. The
metallic copper changed to a
mixture of copper oxides,
copper carbonates, copper
sulfates, and copper
chlorides due to exposure
to various chemicals in the
air and rain.
Boiling an egg causes
a chemical change
because the heating
of the egg causes the
protein in the egg to
change shape which
creates new
proteins. When the
egg cools down it
doesn't look the same
as it did before you
heated it up..
Mixing vinegar and
baking soda results in
the mixture bubbles
and fizzes. Water,
carbon dioxide, and
sodium acetate are
produced.
The chemical changes
occurring when baking a
bake results in sodium
bicarbonate and tartaric acid
in the baking powder
reacting chemically to
produce carbon dioxide
gas so your cake will rise.
4. Identify an example of a physical change.
Support your answer.
• Melting an ice cube
• Water molecules are still water molecules (There
was nothing new produced.)
An example of a physical
change occurs when
making a baseball bat.
Even though the wood
has changed shape
and therefore physical
properties, the
chemical nature of the
wood has not been
altered. The bat and
the original piece of
wood are still the
same chemical
substance.

5. Identify an example of a chemical change.
Support your answer.
• When hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) become water
– Oxygen bubbles
• Iron rusting produced iron oxide (Fe2O3)
NEW SUBSTANCES ARE PRODUCED
Ex:
• burning of wood
• Ash and CO2
are produced
The fireworks we see
on the 4th of July
are examples of
chemical changes.
They are actually
metals such as
magnesium and
copper that change
chemically as they
light up the night
skies with their
fantastic colors.
Let’s summarize…
1. Explain what occurs during a chemical
change.
2. Explain what happens to a substances
when a physical change occurs.
