Exploring Physical and Chemical Changes

The video tutorial explains the difference between physical and chemical changes. Physical changes involve alterations in size, shape, or state of matter without forming new substances, such as melting ice cream or weathering. Chemical changes result in new substances, like rust formation or digestion, where food is broken down by enzymes. The video provides examples and explains how these changes occur in everyday life.
