“Boiling egg” is a process that changes the egg from liquid to solid. This change is :
-
A-melting
-
B- chemical change
-
C- physical change
Correct Answer
A. B- chemical changeExplanation
Boiling an egg involves a chemical change because the heat causes the proteins in the egg to denature and coagulate, resulting in the formation of a solid structure. This is different from a physical change where the substance retains its chemical composition but undergoes a change in state or form. In this case, the egg undergoes a chemical transformation as its molecular structure is altered during the boiling process.Rate this question:
