Both slicing a tomato and a chemical change such as burning toast cannot be reversed. However, why is slicing a tomato still considered only a physical change?

    Physical changes do not change the chemical make up of a substance. Chemical changes do.

    Slicing a tomato only changes its proportion and size (which are physical properties), instead of anything inside the tomato.

    Meanwhile, burning toast changes something inside the toast, making it a chemical change, instead of a physical change.
