Classify each as a physical or chemical change. Explain each answer.
a) When limestone is heated carbon dioxide and
calcium oxide result.
b) Digesting a candy bar.
c) Copper can be drawn into thin wires.
d) Ripening of fruits.
e) Ice floats on water

a) When limestone is heated in a kiln, the calcium carbonate breaks down into calcium oxide and carbon dioxide. This type of reaction is called thermal decomposition. The process is called calcining. ... Slaked lime is used to reduce the acidity of the soil, which helps increase its fertility.

b) Mechanical digestion occurs in the mouth, stomach, and small intestine. Food is chemically changed indigestion when new, smaller substances are formed. These chemical changes are examples of chemical digestion. Chemical digestion begins in the mouth when enzymes in saliva begin to break down carbohydrates.

c)  Copper is a ductile metal. This means that it can easily be shaped into pipes and drawn into wires. Copper pipes are lightweight because they can have thin walls. They don't corrode and they can be bent to fit around corners.

d)  Ripening of fruits is a chemical change. During ripening the pigment present in the skin of the fruit changes and this can not be reversed back. it is a chemical change as once a fruit ripens it cannot turn raw again.

e)  Ice is a unique substance because it is solid-state — ice — is less dense than its liquid state. Because of this property, ice floats in water. Physical properties are characteristics of a substance. They do not change. Physical properties include colour, smell, freezing/melting point, and density.

hey there!

mass = 6.75 g

volume =   9 cm³

therefore:

d = mass / volume

d   = 6.75 / 9

d = 0.7 g/cm³

answer b
