Irreversible Changes: Chemical Changes
Investigating changes that result in new substances and cannot be easily reversed.
Key Questions
- Differentiate between a physical change and a chemical change using observable evidence.
- Analyze the signs that indicate a chemical change has occurred in a substance.
- Predict the properties of a new substance formed after an irreversible change.
