International Year of Chemistry: Physical or Chemical change?

MATERIALS:
- 2 plates - 2 sheets of paper - a lighter INSTRUCTIONS: - Make a ball with one of the sheets and place it on a plate. - Fold the second sheet of paper, place it on the plate and burn it. - The first sheet has suffered a physical change, and the second one a chemical change. WHY? The first sheet of paper is still paper, it keeps its properties. It has only changed its shape and size: it's a physical change. The second sheet of paper isn't paper any more. Now it's something different, it's ash: it's a chemical change. WHAT DO YOU THINK ABUOT IT? WRITE YOUR COMMENTS!
