This document discusses physical and chemical properties and changes. It provides examples to identify the type of property or change. The key points are:
1. Physical properties are observable without changing the substance, while chemical properties indicate how a substance reacts chemically with others.
2. Physical changes alter the size, shape or state of a substance without forming a new one. Chemical changes form new substances with different properties.
3. Examples are provided to identify properties as physical or chemical, and changes as physical or chemical based on whether new substances are formed.

Identify the following as being true or false to the left of the sentence. 1. A change in size is a physical change. 2. A chemical change means a new substance with new properties was formed. 3. Water freezing is an example of a chemical change. 4. When platinum is heated, then cooled to its original state, we say this is a physical change. 5. When milk turns sour, this is a physical change because a change in odour does not indicate a chemical change. 6. When citric acid and baking soda mix, carbon dioxide is produced and the temperature decreases. This must be a chemical change.
