Question

Which among the following types of change are being depicted in the below figure?

• A. Irreversible and chemical
• B. Reversible and chemical
• C. Irreversible and physical
• D. Reversible and physical

Answer 1

The correct option is C Irreversible and physical

$\bullet$ Changes which can't be reversed are called irreversible changes.

$\bullet$ The change in which the composition of the original substance remains unchanged and no new substance is formed during a change is called physical change.

$\bullet$ The figure depicts the cutting of an apple. Cutting of an apple is an irreversible change, as we cannot get the whole apple back in its original shape from the cut apple. It is also a physical change as apple's physical structure gets changed and no new product is formed in the process.
