Answer 1

In chemistry, there are two types of change, they are chemical and physical changes. A chemical change is one in which new substance are formed and it is always irreversible while a physical change is one in which no new substance is formed and it is always reversible. There are many factors that can indicate that a chemical change has taken place, these include: energy transfer, formation of precipitation, gas production, etc. Fracture formation does not indicate chemical change. In fracture formation nothing changes, so it is a form of physical change.
