    Burning of paper is ___________ change.

    • Irreversible

    • Reversible

    Correct Answer
    A. Irreversible
    Explanation
    When paper is burned, it undergoes a chemical reaction that results in the formation of new substances, such as ash and smoke. This change is irreversible because it cannot be undone or reversed. Once the paper is burned, it cannot be restored back to its original form. Therefore, the correct answer is irreversible.

    • Irreversible

    Correct Answer
    A. Reversible

    Burning of candle wax is a _______ change.

    • Reversible

    • Irreversible

    Correct Answer
    A. Irreversible
    Explanation
    The burning of candle wax is an irreversible change because once the wax is heated and ignited, it undergoes a chemical reaction with oxygen in the air, resulting in the formation of new substances such as carbon dioxide and water vapor. These new substances cannot be easily converted back into wax, making the change irreversible.
