Answer:

true

Explanation:

You are correct that a compound can't be separated by a physical change. However, when you put NaCl in water, although the water looks innocent, it actually reacts with the NaCl and a chemical change takes place. The water molecules interact with the sodium and chloride ions and break them apart

Answer:

FALSE

Explanation:

AS we know sodium is a metal and chlorine is a non metal which shows that if they will react with each other the product formed will be an ionic compound which the sodium chloride is...

and we know that ionic compounds have a strong bond which can't be broken easily and that is why it can't be broken (or separated) by physical process .

Therefore the given statement is false....

I hope it may help you to understand
