Two colorless solutions are mixed together in a test tube. A student observes that a bright yellow solid collects at the bottom of the test tube. Is this is physical or chemical change? Cite evidence to support your answer.

It is a chemical reaction , a chemical change.

The colourless solutions can beand .

When they are mixed , displacement reactiom takes place and Lead iodide is formed which is yellow in colour

they start with the same

freezing

deposition

condensation

explanation;

melting also called fusion is the process where solid becomes liquid, sublimation is the process where solid becomes gaseous without first changing to liquid, deposition involves change from gaseous to solid state, freezing involves change from liquid to solid, boiling or evaporation involves change of liquid to gaseous state, while condensation is the change from gaseous state to liquid state.

endothermic reactions involves absorption of heat from the surroundings or the environment while exothermic reactions involves loss of heat energy to the surroundings.

in this case, sublimation, evaporation and melting are endothermic reactions (gain energy from the environment) while, freezing, deposition and condensation are exothermic (loss of energy to the surroundings) reactions.
