Physical Change : A physical change is any change in matter that involves the substance going from one physical state to another. The reference to a physical state involves solids, liquids, and gases. When a substance undergoes a physical change it does not lose its original properties when changing from one phase to another. The types of physical changes can vary. A substance can go from a solid to a liquid, a liquid to a gas, a gas to a liquid, a liquid to a solid, a solid to a gas, or a gas to a solid.
Examples of Physical changes:
1. Melting of icecube
2. Breaking a glass
3. Crushing a can
4. Boiling water etc

Chemical Change : Chemical changes involve chemical reactions and the creation of new products. Typically, a chemical change is irreversible. In contrast, physical changes do not form new products and are reversible.
