C. GOALS
1. Students can do experiment about physical changes
2. Students can presents, identify, and communicate the results of physical changes
experiment.
3. Students can explain the definition of physical changes and giving some example of
physical changes in daily life.
D. LEARNING MATERIALS
Physical change
Physical changes are changes affecting the form of a chemical substance, but not its
chemical composition. Physical changes are used to separate mixtures into their component
compounds, but can not usually be used to separate compounds into chemical elements or
simpler compounds. Physical changes occur when objects or substances undergo a change that
does not change their chemical composition. This contrasts with the concept of chemical change
in which the composition of a substance changes or one or more substances combine or break up
to form new substances. In general a physical change is reversible using physical means. For
example salt dissolved in water can be recovered by allowing the water to evaporate. A physical
change involves a change in physical properties. Examples of physical properties include
melting, transition to a gas, change of strength, change of durability, changes to crystal form,
textural change, shape, size, color, volume and density.
An example of a physical change is the process of tempering steel to form a knife blade.
A steel blank is repeatedly heated and hammered which changes the hardness of the steel, its
flexibility and its ability to maintain a sharp edge. Many physical changes also involve the
rearrangement of atoms most noticeably in the formation of crystals. Many chemical changes are
irreversible, and many physical changes are reversible, but reversibility is not a certain criterion
for classification. Although chemical changes may be recognized by an indication such as odor,
color change, or production of a gas, every one of these indicators can result from physical
change.
