Question 17 • AA-F26 Physical Science

Which describes a feature of the physical changes of all substances?

Answer
A
can dissolve in water
B
can conduct heat and electricity
C
rearranges atoms to form new substances
D
does not change the identity of a substance

Explanation

A physical change affects a substance’s form or appearance without changing what substance it is. Therefore, its identity remains the same, which matches “does not change the identity of a substance.” Dissolving in water and conducting heat or electricity are not features shared by all substances, and rearranging atoms to form new substances describes a chemical change.
