Answer: True

Step-by-step explanation:

Physical change is a change in which there is no rearrangement of atoms and thus no new substance is formed. There is only change in physical state of the substance.

Chemical change is a change in which there is rearrangement of atoms and thus new substance is formed. There may or may not be a change in physical state.
