How Are Chemical And Physical Changes Different On A Molecular Level??

Chemical Changes Versus Physical Changes

Physical changes are usually about physical states of matter. Chemical changes happen on a molecular level when you have two or more molecules that interact. Chemical changes happen when atomic bonds are broken or created during chemical reactions.

What happens at a molecular level during a physical change?

If a physical change occurs, the matter involved remains the same at its molecular level. The molecules rearrange, but the internal structure stays intact. It may look different but it has the same material.
