1. Concept of a physical and a chemical change.

2. Investigate the observable changes during a physical and a

chemical change
3. Conservation of mass during a physical and chemical change.
4.Concept of matter & the changes in states of matter.

5. Differences between a physical and chemical change.

6. Effects of chemical change on physical properties of substances.
7. Understanding the terms crystallization, galvanization, rusting,
fermentation, sublimation etc. with examples.

8. Significance of chemical changes in everyday

We notice different changes around us
.
We can classify these changes into

1 Physical changes – Occur when the

appearance of substance changes but
chemically the substance is the same.
No new substance is produced
2.Chemical changes- Occur when
chemical reactions occur & new
substances are produced

• Crush a small piece of
chalk into dust.
• Add little water to the dust
to make a paste. Roll it
into the shape of a piece
of chalk.
• Let it dry.
• Did you get back chalk
from the dust?
• Take some ice in a plastic
tumbler. Melt a small portion of
ice . Now place the tumbler in
the Fridge / freezing mixture
( ICE PLUS COMMON SALT )
• Does water become solid
again? (Salt reduces the freezing
point of water, so allows ice to
attain temp. lower than O 0 C)

1. Gems or pebbles to be
used to show particles

liquids and gases.

2. Three groups of

 Change of State
Remember
The particles in a solid are close together and
vibrate.
The particles in a liquid are further apart and
slide over each other.
The particles in a gas are far apart and bump
into each other as they move quickly.
 ACTIVITY-9
 Hold a used hack-saw blade with a pair of tongs.

 Keep the tip of the free end on the flame of a stove or candle

 Wait for a few minutes .

 Observe change in color of the tip of blade after heating and

cooling .

 Make a note of changes observed.

Physical Changes ReversibleChanges)

* A physical change is a change during which no new

substance is formed.
** Physical changes occur when the state of a substance
changes ( SOLID LIQID GAS )
*** Physical change occurs when a substance is crushed, ground
or cut into smaller pieces.
**** Physical changes are often easy to reverse.
 PHYSICAL CHANGES
* Properties such as Shape. Size. Colour
and State of a substance are called its
PHYSICAL Properties

**A Change in which a substance

undergoes a change in its Physical
Properties is called a PHYSICAL
CHANGE.

***A Physical change is generally

REVERSIBLE.

**** In such a change no new substance

is produced

We can use our senses to see

 Chemical Changes
A chemical change or chemical reaction occurs
whenever a new substance forms.
Evidence that a new substance is formed are –
a change in colour.
a gas given off.
a new solid forms.
a change in temperature.
The following are examples of chemical change.
• Wood burns
• An egg is cooked to become a white and yellow solid.
• A metal panel on a car rusts.
• Fireworks explode.
• Concrete hardens.
• An egg cooks.
• Paper burns.
 Chemical Change
