You may have been told that a chemical change is something you can't undo, but a physical change is something you can undo. That isn't really true, but it is a decent rule of thumb. The better definition is:

it is a chemical change if the molecules are changed

it is a chemical change if you saw bubbles

it is a chemical change if the color changed

it is a chemical change if something changed phase or dissolved.
