Question

In which type of change, alteration takes place only in specific property of matter but not composition?

• A. Chemical change
• B. Physical change
• C. Both physical and chemical change
• D. None of the above

Answer 1

The correct option is B Physical change

Physical changes are those type of changes where the form of a chemical substance is affected, but not its chemical composition. For example, when ice melts, there occurs a physical change from solid to liquid. but the chemical composition of the water molecule is same in the solid phase as well as in the liquid phase.

So the correct option is B
