:
Definition of physical change: 1 Mark
Definition of chemical change: 1 Mark
Examples : 1 Mark
Physical changesare the changes that change the physical traits of the substancewithout making any change in their internal structure.
Example : Melting of ice cubes.
On the other hand, achemical changeis one that affects the internal structure of the substanceso as to form a new substance.
Examlpes : Burning of wood.
Question 13. How is milk converted into curd? Can the milk be obtained again from the curd? What kind of change is this? [3 MARKS]
 Discuss Question

:
Preparation of curd: 1 Mark
Statement: 1 Mark
Kind of change: 1 Mark
Milk is taken in a vessel and a small quantity of curd is added into it. It is stirred and kept aside for few hours without any disturbance. Finally, the milk is converted into curd.
However, curd formed cannot be converted into milk again.
This indicates that it is an irreversible change.
Question 14. All the changes around us are good.
  1.    True
  2.    False
  3.    temporary
  4.    periodic
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> False
:
B
Not all changesaround us are desired. There are many changes which can harm us. For example, global warming changes the temperature of our planet. However, if the temperature of the earth increases beyond a certain limit, it will become inhabitable for mankind.
Question 15. A melted chocolate is kept in a refrigerator. It solidifies again. This is an irreversible change.
  1.    True
  2.    False
  3.    Irreversible and chemical
  4.    Reversible and chemical
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> False
:
B
When a melted chocolate is kept in a refrigerator it solidifies on cooling. However when it will be kept at room temperature, it will absorb heat and melt again. Hence, it is a reversible process..
Question 16. On heating a metal it contracts while on cooling it expands.
  1.    True
  2.    False
  3.    Irreversible and chemical
  4.    Reversible and chemical
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> False
:
B
On heating a metal expands. However on cooling it contracts. Hence, the given statement is false.
Question 17. Statement A: Heating a metal can bring about change in its shape.
  1.    Both statements are correct
  2.    Statement A is true; Statement B is false
  3.    Statement A is false; Statement B is true
  4.    Both the statements are false
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> Both statements are correct
:
A
When a metal is heated, it expands and when it is cooled, it contracts. So, heating and cooling both brings about a change.Hence, both the statements are correct.
Question 18. Making of omelette from egg is a/an _____ change.
Making Of Omelette From Egg Is A/an _____ Change.
  1.    irreversible
  2.    reversible
  3.    temporary
  4.    periodic
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> irreversible
:
A
Changes which can't be reversed are called irreversible changes.
When we cook an omelette, the raw egg gets converted into a semi-solid substance which has different chemical properties. We cannot get the raw egg back from the omelette. Hence, it is an irreversible change.
Question 19. Making stars by cutting it out from a sheet of  paper is  a reversible change.
 
  1.    True
  2.    False
  3.    Irreversible and chemical
  4.    Reversible and chemical
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> False
:
B
Making stars by cutting it out from a paper isn't a reversible change because once you cut out a star you can't join it back to make the same paper. Since we started making the stars out of a plane big sheet of paper and ended up with the stars, we cannot join the star back to get the complete sheet of paper back.
Question 20. When a change can be reversed, meaning when we can get back the original product, it is a reversible change.
  1.    False
  2.    True
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> True
:
B
A paper boat can be made from a paper and then by unfolding it, it can be converted back to the same paper. Thus, this is a reversible change. Melting of ice, folding of paper, water turning into vapour, inflation of balloon are some of the examples of a reversible change.
