Chemical changes result in the formation of one or more new substances with different chemical properties (e.g., burning, rusting, cooking, souring of milk).<br \/>\n<\/section>\n<section id=\"pyq-additional-information\">\nDissolving sugar in water, melting of ice, and crystallization are all physical changes. In milk turning sour, bacteria perform fermentation, converting lactose (a sugar) into lactic acid, which changes the taste and properties of the milk. This is a clear example of a chemical reaction producing new substances.<br \/>\n<\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Which one of the following is a chemical change?
