Answer:

True.

But it only changes in physical change.

How?

Step-by-step explanation:

The chemical reaction produces a new substance with new and different physical and chemical properties. Matter is never destroyed or created in chemical reactions. The particles of one substance are rearranged to form a new substance.

In a physical change, a substance's physical properties may change.

A chemical change is a permanent change. A Physical change affects only physical properties i.e. shape, size, etc. ... Some examples of physical change are freezing of water, melting of wax, boiling of water, etc. A few examples of chemical change are digestion of food, burning of coal, rusting, etc.

Hope this helps!
