Quinton Marshall · Answer 1

The answer is 1. chemical change.

That is when one substance changes into one or more new substances, it has exhibited a chemical change.

A Chemical change is a change that takes places when a substance changes its composition by forming one or more new substances. As here also, one substance is changing into one or more new substance, thus it exhibits a chemical change.

Answer: Option (1) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Chemical changes are defined as the changes which tend to show difference in chemical composition of a substance.

For example, toxicity, reactivity, combustion etc are all chemical changes.

In a chemical change, there will always be formation of a new compound.

On the other hand, a change which is unable to bring any difference in chemical composition of a substance is known as a physical change.

For example, a change in shape, size, mass, volume etc are all physical changes.

Thus, we can conclude that when one substance changes into one or more new substances, it has exhibited a chemical change.
