Answer:
C) steel turning to rust in salt air
Explanation:
The missing options are:
A) ice melting to form liquid water
B) water boiling to form steam
C) steel turning to rust in salt air
D) sugar dissolving into hot coffee
In a chemical change the atoms of the reacting compounds are reordered forming new compounds. In a chemical change, new compounds appear, but in a physical change not.
Then, change of states like ice melting and water boiling are not chemical changes.
During steel rust, components of steel, like iron, are oxidized, that is, reacts with oxygen forming oxides.
The dissolution of sugar into hot coffee is a physical change in which sugar molecules get further apart in the coffee, but they don't change.
If <em>the isotherms</em> are spaced closely together over some portion of the map, there is a drastic temperature change over that portion.
