This document discusses reversible and irreversible changes in materials when heated or cooled. Reversible changes are temporary and the material can return to its original form without forming a new substance, known as a physical change. Irreversible changes are permanent, the material cannot return to its original form as a new substance is formed, known as a chemical change. It also defines mixtures as combinations of substances where no chemical changes occur and the properties of the individual substances do not change.

When materials are heated or cooled, they may undergo
changes. Changes can be temporary or permanent.

What are Mixtures?
When different substances are combined, no chemical changes occur.
The properties of the individual substances do not change.
