39、 to the doctors and nurses C Do you like Physics or Chemistry? Matter (物质) is always changing, either physically or chemically. If a material goes through a physical change, it is still the same material. During a chemical change, one kind of matter changes into another completely different kind of
40、matter. For example, when we burn wood or cook fish, materials change. People use chemistry every day in the kitchen. The food we eat has many different natural chemicals.

41、ts original form. The changes that food undergoes may be chemical or physical. If a change does not affect the foods chemical composition, we call it a physical change.

42、 of material. Any change that changes the chemicals in the food is a chemical change. Bread contains carbohydrates, which are chemicals made up of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen.

46、d into its different components (成分) although it is very difficult. Once the cake mixture is formed, its poured into a cake pan and baked in an oven. The heat from the oven has caused chemical changes to take place. The cake is finished and the ingredients cannot be separated. 38. The material doesn
