Aspirin is going to be a chemical change. It's a little molecule that enters your blood stream and reacts in such a way to increase blood flow.
Most Common Suggestions I Make on the Forums.
1. Start by writing a balanced chemical equation.
2. Don't confuse thermodynamic stability with chemical reactivity.
3. Forum Supports LaTex
