The conversion of milk into curd is a chemical change, while the melting of ice is a physical change.
Chemical Change: Conversion of milk into curd
- This process involves a chemical reaction between the proteins in milk and the bacteria (or acidic substances) used to make curd. It leads to the formation of new substances (curd) with different properties from the original milk.
Physical Change: Melting of ice
- Melting ice changes its state from solid to liquid without altering its chemical composition. It’s a physical change because the water remains water, just in a different state.
