उत्तर
- Breaking of a glass bottle is a physical change because each of the broken piece of bottle is still a glass and no new substance has been formed. In the process, only the shape and size of bottle change.
- Burning of coal in air is a chemical change because the burnt coal cannot be obtained back and it is an irreversible change.
- Preparation of a cake is a chemical change as all the raw materials that go inside the mixture get cooked after baking and the process cannot be reversed.
- Knitting sweater from wool is a physical change as we can obtain back the wool from the sweater. So, it is a reversible process.

In a beam of sunlight entering a room, we can sometimes see dust particles moving in a haphazard way in the air. Why do these dust particles move?
When extremely small particles X derived from the anther of a flower were suspended in a liquid Y and observed through a microscope, it was found that the particles X were moving throughout the liquid Y in a very zig-zag way. It was also observed that warmer the liquid Y, faster the particles X moved on its surface.

There is a large group of materials P which can be divided into three groups Q, R and S on the basis of their properties. The substances belonging to group Q can be solids, liquids or gases. The solids belonging to group Q are usually electrical insulators. Most of the substances of group R are solids which are good conductors of electricity. The substances belonging to group S are neither insulators like Q nor good conductors like R. The properties of S are intermediate between those of Q and R.
