A chemical change is a change of materials into another, new materials with different
properties and one or more than one new substances are formed.
It results when a substance combines with another to form a new substance (synthesis or
either decomposes to form more substances). The oxidation reaction is a chemical
change example that causes a chemical reaction.
They are generally irreversible except by further chemical reactions. Chemical change
examples include chemical reaction which develops the dye in the colour and creates a
chemical change in the hair. There are three types of chemical changes namely organic,
inorganic and biochemical change.
This is a clear example of a combustion reaction. Natural gas comprehends methane gas.
When methane reacts with oxygen in the atmosphere it produces water and carbon
dioxide. Hence, it is an example of chemical change.

Firework consists of metal nitrates thus constituting burning compounds. When a firework
is lit, combustion takes place leading to the formation of a new substance with the
emission of light and heat. Thus, it can be considered a chemical change.
