The video explores physical and chemical changes, using examples like candle burning and lemonade making. It explains the differences between these changes, focusing on substance formation, reversibility, mass, and energy. The video concludes with interactive questions to reinforce learning.

What is NOT a characteristic of a chemical change?

• Reversible process

• Formation of a new substance

• Involves energy change

• Irreversible process

Which example demonstrates a physical change?

• Formation of water vapor

• Melting of wax

• Burning of a candle

• Combining of hydrocarbons with oxygen

What does the burning of a candle primarily demonstrate?

• Neither physical nor chemical changes

• Both physical and chemical changes

• Chemical change

• Physical change

• Physical appearance

• Mass of reactants

• Chemical composition

What happens to the mass of water when ice melts?

• Increases

• Decreases

• Stays the same

• Cannot be determined

According to the law of conservation of mass, the total mass in a closed system must remain constant. How is this demonstrated in the video?

• By burning a candle in a closed container

• By burning a candle in an open environment

• By melting ice

• None of the above

Which of the following is an irreversible physical change?

• Boiling water

• Cutting a lemon

• None of the above

• Freezing water into ice

What is the role of energy in chemical changes compared to physical changes?

• More energy is involved in chemical changes

• Energy involvement is the same in both

• Energy is only involved in physical changes

• Less energy is involved in chemical changes
