Answer:

After the ball has a perfect elastic collision with the wall (no loss of energy) the speed of the ball is the same. But its velocity is now pointing away from the wall. Since momentum is mass * velocity it has changed.

Before:

p = m * v * x

where x is a unit vector pointing towards the wall

After:

p = m * v * -x = -m * v * x
