CHEMICAL CHANGES


A chemical change is when one or more substances change into one or more different substances.
This is also called a chemical reaction.

  • When wood or fabric burn, they change into ashes and carbon dioxide.
  • When milk changes into yoghurt or cheese, it is no longer milk.
  • When fruit is overripe, the colour and flavour change.
Chemical reactions are frequently used in industry.
