Answer to Problem 19R

Option B

Explanation of Solution

Introduction:

A physical change is defined as a change in shape, size and state of matter while the identity remains same.

Two different wires are twisted. Since both wires have similar metal for conduction,when current passes through it, there is no change in its property. Therefore, only size of the metal has been changed at joint.

Thus, it is a physical change.

Conclusion:

Thus, the correct option is B.
