Solution
The correct option is A Physical change
A physical change is a change of the physical state. They are usually reversible. The physical properties of a substance include such characteristics as shape (volume and size), color, texture, flexibility, density, and mass.
Hence, we can say a change in which the form of matter is altered but one substance is not transformed into another is called a physical change.
