Is cooking an egg an example of a physical or chemical change? Explain your answer

Sagot :

Answer:

Cooking the egg is an example of a chemical change.

Explanation:

Cooking any type of egg is a chemical change due to its inability to return to its former liquid state, once cooked. While there are also physical changes that may occur during the cooking process such as a change in shape, the final product is a chemical change. Cooking an egg is a set of chemical changes because chemical bonds are broken and new ones are made, resulting in the formation of new substances. In this case many of the bonds broken are those which cause the egg's proteins to be folded into a globular shape.
