Brief Explanations
A physical change is a change in the state or form of matter without a change in its chemical composition. When water freezes into ice, only its state changes from liquid to solid, and the water molecules remain the same H₂O molecules. In a chemical change, new substances are formed with different chemical properties. Since no new substances are formed during water - freezing, it is a physical change.
