Physical changes- any change in the physical properties of the substance is a physical change. Generally physical properties include color, state, size , shape, odour, appearance . In any phyical change, no new substance is formed.

Chemical changes- any change in the chemical properties of the substance is a chemical change. Chemical properties changes only when something new is formed during a reaction.

∴ Part A- 2 H2O(l) → 2 H2(g) + O2(g)

In this, H2 and O2 is produced during the reaction which is different from H20. Thus, it is a chemical change.

Part B- H2O(l) → H2O(s)

In this, only the state of water changes from liquid to solid and no new product is formed. Thus, it is a physical change.

Part C-CO2(s) → CO2(g)

In this also, only the state of CO2 changes from solid to gas and no new product is formed. Thus, it is a physical change.

Part D-H2(g) → 2 H(g)

In this reaction, H2 molecule is dissociated into 2 hydrogen atom leading to formation of new products. Thus, it is a chemical change.

Finally, equations that represent physical changes are - B and C

B. H2O(l) → H2O(s)

C. CO2(s) → CO2(g)

Matter can exist as a solid, a liquid, or a gas. The solid state is distinguished by its ability to

Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

Explanation:

A solid is characterized by structural rigidity and resistance to a force applied to the surface. Unlike a liquid, a solid object does not flow to take on the shape of its container, nor does it expand to fill the entire available volume like a gas. Solids molecules stay close to eachother maintaining its shape meaning it is in a ordered pattern.
