Brief Explanations
A physical change is a change in the form or state of matter without changing its chemical composition. Liquid gold being poured into a mold and hardening into a ring only changes its state from liquid to solid without altering its chemical makeup. A chemical change involves a change in chemical composition, like sodium and chlorine reacting to form salt. Solidification is a type of physical change where a liquid turns into a solid.
