In class we made salt crystals. To do this we put a supersaturated solution of salt into a glass of water. After a few days the water evaporated and the salt crystals were left on the paper cutouts. When the salt dissolved in the water was this a physical change or a chemical reaction? Please explain your answer in detail.

Answer:

Dissolving a solid in liquid, such as table salt in water, is a physical change because only the state of the matter has changed. Physical changes can often be reversed. Allowing the water to evaporate will return the salt to a solid state.

Explanation: Please give me brainliest.

This is a physical change since the state of matter is the only thing that changed
