Grinding quartz crystals down to produce sand is an example of a physical change. Correct answer: D Physical change is a change of the form of a chemical substance, but not its chemical composition. And this is exactly what grinding quartz crystals is. A physical change differs from a chemical change in that new substances are formed.
