Picking up a paper clip with a magnet. Physical change, Chemical change, or neither

Hello there! :D

A physical change is a change in which something is changed in appearance. For example, if I cut a piece of paper in half. 

A chemical change is when the composition (or the makeup) of something is changed. For example, baking soda and vinegar. They react to form a whole different thing. 

Picking up a paper clip with a magnet doesn't change its appearance. It doesn't change its composition. The magnet only picks up the paper clip because it attracts magnetic objects, if you were to take it off of the paper clip it would still be the same paper clip, and most likely look the same. 

I hope this helps!

Using the following thermochemical data, what is the change in enthalpy for the following reaction? Ca(OH)2(aq) + HCl(aq) CaCl2(
sesenic [268]
Ca(OH)2(aq) + 2HCl(aq)------> CaCl2(aq) + 2H2O(l) ΔH-?

CaO(s) + 2HCl(aq)-----> CaCl2(aq) + H2O(l),  Δ<span>H = -186 kJ
</span>
CaO(s) + H2O(l) -----> Ca(OH)2(s), Δ<span>H = -65.1 kJ
</span>
1) Ca(OH)2 should be  reactant, so
CaO(s) + H2O(l) -----> Ca(OH)2(s) 
we are going to take as 
 Ca(OH)2(s)---->CaO(s) + H2O(l), and ΔH = 65.1 kJ

2) Add 2 following equations
Ca(OH)2(s)---->CaO(s) + H2O(l),                    and ΔH = 65.1 kJ
<span><u>CaO(s) + 2HCl(aq)-----> CaCl2(aq) + H2O(l), and ΔH = -186 kJ</u>

</span>Ca(OH)2(s)+CaO(s) + 2HCl(aq)--->CaO(s) + H2O(l)+CaCl2(aq) + H2O(l)

Ca(OH)2(s)+ 2HCl(aq)---> H2O(l)+CaCl2(aq) + H2O(l)
By addig these 2 equation, we got the equation that we are needed,
so to find enthalpy of the reaction, we need to add  enthalpies of reactions we added.
ΔH=65.1 - 186 ≈ -121 kJ
