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

Chemistry

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!

Which of the following is an example of mechanical weathering
777dan777 [17]
The answer is A-Gravity. Why? This is because B and C are examples of chemical weathering and not mechanical. Although choice D may seem viable lava intrusion is not a direct cause of mechanical weathering although lava pushing upward may help in aiding mechanical weathering it would not be considered a big enough cause, thus gravity is the correct answer.
