Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

Whether the phenomenon of steam condensing and freezing to ice is a physical or a chemical change is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

The phenomenon in which matter is rearranged without losing its identity is called a physical change. The phenomenon in which matter changes its form and loses its identity is called a chemical change. A chemical change results from a chemical reaction, while a physical change results when matter changes forms but not its chemical identity.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

Whether the phenomenon of the explosion of hydrogen and oxygen gases is a physical or a chemical change is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

The phenomenon in which matter is rearranged without losing its identity is called a physical change.
