Answer:

Burning gasoline in a lawnmower is a chemical change.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, a combustion reaction takes place. Freezing water to make ice cubes, melting gold to make jewellery and boiling water for soup are examples of physical change since, only a change in physical state takes place.
