chemical change
rewatch
Physical changes only affect the form or state of a substance without changing its chemical composition. Chemical changes result in the formation of new substances with different chemical properties. Fermentation of sugar or corn into alcohol involves the breaking and forming of chemical bonds to create a new substance, so it is a chemical change.
