Solution

The correct option is B False
A physical change is a temporary and reversible change in which the physical properties of the substance changes without altering the composition of the substance.

A chemical change is a permanent, not easily reversible change in which the identity of the substance is altered to produce one or more new substances.

Hence, it is a false statement.
