observed with senses indicates how a substance reacts with something else
determined without destroying matter matter will be changed into a new substance after the
reaction

True or False.
1. f Changing the size and shapes of pieces of wood would be a chemical change.

2. t Because propane (C3H8) reacts with oxygen (O2), this is a chemical change.

3. t Evaporation is a physical change.

4. Because table sugar (C12H22O11) is a covalent molecule, dissolving it in water is a chemical change.
f
5. f Burning wood is a physical change.

6. f Combining hydrogen and oxygen to make water is a physical change.

7. t Breaking up concrete is a physical change.

8. f Sand being washed out to sea from the beach is a chemical change.

9. f When ice cream melts, a chemical change occurs.

10. f Acid rain damaging a marble statue is a physical change.
