Question

Ice melts to form water. And water freezes to form ice. Choose the TRUE statement about these changes.

Answer 1

Answer:

A. Both freezing and melting are physical changes.

Explanation:

Even if you were to freeze water, the molecules are still water molecules, and vise versa with melting it.

Answer 2

Answer: Option A) Both melting and freezing are physical changes.

Explanation:

A physical change is one which is easily reversible and in which no new substances are formed.

Hence, since ice melts to form water (melting), and water freezes to form ice back (freezing), both melting and freezing are easily reversible and do not form new products.

Thus, both melting and freezing are physical changes.
