It’s a physical change because the water and the salt kept their original properties.

Answer: B) It’s a physical change because the water and the salt kept their original properties.

Explanation: Physical Process is a process which involves no change in chemical composition. The substances keep their original properties as no new compounds get formed.

When salt is dissolved in water, salt occupies the vacant spaces present between the water molecules. The salt and water do not combine chemically and can be separated by physical means. Thus it is a physical process.
