Question

How would you show that setting of curd is a chemical change?

Answer in Brief

Solution 1

Once the curd is formed, milk cannot be re-obtained from it. Also, both milk and curd have different properties. Since these are the properties of a chemical change, the setting of curd is a chemical change.

Solution 2

  • When curd sets, its chemical composition changes.
  • Curd is obtained as a new substance.
  • Curd cannot be obtained again in its original state (milk).
  • The chemical properties change.
  • Its taste becomes sour.

Thus, the setting of curd is a chemical change.
