Exploring Chemical and Physical Changes

Professor Hof Princo introduces the concepts of chemical and physical changes through various examples. The video covers how chemical changes create new substances, while physical changes do not alter the atomic structure. Examples include sifting flour, evaporating milk, and crushing eggshells. The video also explores changes through activities like stretching rubber bands, shuffling cards, and melting wax. The professor uses engaging demonstrations to clarify these scientific concepts.
