In a physical change the appearance or form of the matter changes but the kind of matter in the substance does not. However in a chemical change, the kind of matter changes and at least one new substance with new properties is formed. The distinction between physical and chemical change is not clear cut.

Chemical change is different from physical change because physical change is the appearance or form changes. but the matter in the substance does not change. but in chemical change the kind of matter changes and at least one new substance with new properties is formed. *you can add more punctuations to make it 5-7 if you would like:)*
