उत्तर

  1. Physical change
  2. White residue of potassium chloride.
  3. Change is reversible.
  4. No, the composition and properties are not altered.
  5. When in place of KCl, we take calcium carbonate, the above experiment cannot be possible as no new substance with new properties is produced since CaCO3 is insoluble in water. Boiling will also not work as CaCO3 is in solid form in water.
