Answer:

Explanation:

When sugar combines with oxygen to form carbon dioxide and water, it is a chemical reaction. The carbon and hydrogen molecules in sugar re-arrange to join with oxygen to form carbon dioxide and water.

So the answer is 4.)a chemical change, because the atoms that make up sugar rearrange to form the products.
