When pcl5 solidifies it forms pcl4 cations and pcl6–anions. according to valence bond theory, hybrid orbitals that are used by phosphorus in the pcl4 cations are one orbital of s and three orbital of p as it is sp³hydridised.
<h3>What is sp³ hybridization?</h3>
Hybridization is a process or system which specifies the shape and geometry of any element or molecule with bond angles too.
The pcl4 cation is sp³ hybridized because of the phosphorus behave as a central atom here and the 4 chloride molecules are attached with the p- orbitals to the phosphorus molecule.
Therefore, pcl4 cation is sp³ hybridized.

So in a chemical change, the product would loses its properties, would form new products and would not be easily reversed.
In a physical change, the products WILL NOT lose any of their properties, WILL NOT form any new products and WILL be easily reversed.
Talking about Water turning to ice I would say it’s all about physical change and not chemical change.
But I would suggest you to either make a research about it or ask your teacher :))
