25 Examples of Temporary and Permanent Transformations

Temporary and Permanent Transformations

The matter It is everything that occupies space, has weight and that can be perceived by senses. Matter can undergo transformations. These can be physical, when matter changes state (solid, liquid or gaseous) but maintains its own characteristics; or chemical, when a chemical reaction alters the properties of matter.

Physical transformations usually cause temporary changes in matter, while chemical transformations are almost always permanent.
