In a chemical change, the chemical composition of matter is being altered or change depending on what chemical processes are occurring, thus chemical change is hardly noticeable just by looking at the physical structure or orientation of a matter. In order to determine that a chemical change has occurred, there are several tests that are needed to conduct to make sure that the chemical composition of a matter was changes. Physical change on the other hand, can easily be noticed just by looking, smelling, touching or even tasting the matter that has undergo a physical process. Although it for risky or pointed objects, it is advisable to take proper precautions in order not to get harm while conducting the test.
