question 17 of 30
what type of change causes atoms to be rearranged?
a. a chemical change
b. a physical change
c. a nuclear change
d. a phase change

Explanation:

In a chemical change, bonds between atoms are broken and new bonds are formed, leading to the rearrangement of atoms to create new substances. Physical changes only affect the state or appearance of a substance without changing its chemical composition. Nuclear changes involve changes in the nucleus of an atom. Phase changes are physical changes related to changes in the state of matter (solid - liquid - gas).

Answer:

A. A chemical change
