Question
Chapter 15.2, Problem 9R
To determine
To Explain: Evaporation is a physical change not a chemical change.
Expert Solution & Answer
Explanation of Solution
Introduction:
Changes which do not change the chemical composition of a substance and just change its physical properties like shape, size etc. are called physical changes. These changes are temporary. The type of changes in which the chemical composition of a substance changes is called chemical change.
Evaporation is a physical change because a liquid water converts into gaseous form but it is still chemical composed of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom.
Conclusion: Evaporation is physical change.
