Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A change which brings no change in chemical composition of a substance is known as a physical change.

For example, melting of ice is a physical change as there occurs change in phase from solid state to liquid state of water. Whereas the structure of water remains the same.

Therefore, we can conclude that the statement which describes a physical change is that it may involve a change in phase but does not involve a change in the molecular structure.

Answer:

Decreasing the volume of solvent in the solution of molecule A

Explanation:

We know that one of the factors that affect the rate of reaction is the concentration of the reactants. The greater the concentration of reactants, the faster the rate of reaction (the greater the frequency of collision between reactants).

Hence, when we decrease the volume of solvent in the solution of molecule A, the concentration of the solution increases and consequently more particles of molecule A are available to collide with particles of molecule B resulting in a higher rate of reaction.
