When you are frying an egg, it's a chemical change because the liquid part of the egg changes from liquid to solid.

Actually you are describing a physical change, what really happens is, when eggs are fried, they absorb heat energy. This breaks the weak chemical bonds that maintain the shape of the egg white proteins, causing them to uncurl. New chemical bonds form between the uncurled egg white proteins. When chemical bonds are broken or formed, new particles are created. Therefore, frying an egg is a chemical change because it results in the formation of new particles.
