What do these two changes have in common? water boiling on a stove tearing a piece of paper

[ "Both are caused by cooling.", "Both are only physical changes.", "Both are chemical changes.", "Both are caused by heating." ]

B

Step 1: Think about each change. Water boiling on the stove is a change of state. So, it is a physical change. The liquid changes into a gas, but a different type of matter is not formed. Tearing a piece of paper is a physical change. The paper tears into pieces. But each piece is still made of paper. Step 2: Look at each answer choice. Both are only physical changes. Both changes are physical changes. No new matter is created. Both are chemical changes. Both changes are physical changes. They are not chemical changes. Both are caused by heating. Water boiling is caused by heating. But tearing a piece of paper is not. Both are caused by cooling. Neither change is caused by cooling.

What do these two changes have in common? cutting an apple ice melting in a glass

[ "Both are only physical changes.", "Both are caused by cooling.", "Both are chemical changes.", "Both are caused by heating." ]

A

Step 1: Think about each change. Cutting an apple is a physical change. The apple gets a different shape. But it is still made of the same type of matter as the uncut apple. Ice melting in a glass is a change of state. So, it is a physical change. The solid ice becomes liquid, but it is still made of water. A different type of matter is not made. Step 2: Look at each answer choice. Both are only physical changes. Both changes are physical changes. No new matter is created. Both are chemical changes. Both changes are physical changes. They are not chemical changes. Both are caused by heating. Ice melting is caused by heating. But cutting an apple is not. Both are caused by cooling. Neither change is caused by cooling.

What do these two changes have in common? making jam photosynthesis

[ "Both are chemical changes.", "Both are caused by cooling.", "Both are only physical changes.", "Both are caused by heating." ]

A

Step 1: Think about each change. Making jam is a chemical change. It involves mixing fruit, sugar, and a substance called pectin. When these ingredients are mixed and cooked, the chemical bonds in their molecules are broken. The atoms then link together to form different molecules that make up the jam. Photosynthesis is a chemical change. Plants make sugar using carbon dioxide, water, and energy from sunlight. Step 2: Look at each answer choice. Both are only physical changes. Both changes are chemical changes. They are not physical changes. Both are chemical changes. Both changes are chemical changes. The type of matter before and after each change is different. Both are caused by heating. The reaction that makes jam is caused by heating. But photosynthesis is not. Both are caused by cooling. Neither change is caused by cooling.
