Example: melting of ice

A chemical reaction is defined as the reaction in which a change in chemical composition takes place. A new substance is formed in these reactions.

Example: Oxidation of magnesium leads to formation of white magnesium oxide and is a chemical change.

Thus a chemical reaction occurs whenever a chemical change takes place.
