Answers
Answer :-
- Physical changes are mostly reversible changes. Almost all the chemical changes are irreversible changes. In reversible changes, a substance can return to its original form whereas under irreversible change, a substance cannot return to its original form. When a substance undergoes a chemical change, its molecular composition is changed entirely. Thus, chemical changes involve the formation of new substances.
The difference between reversible and irreversible changes is -
- In reversible change, a substance can return to its original state whereas, In irreversible change, a substance cannot return to its original state.
- In reversible change, the chemical properties of the substance do not change whereas, In irreversible change, the chemical properties of the substance change.
- Most physical changes are reversible changes whereas, All chemical changes are irreversible changes.
