Answer:

Capable of bonding to surfaces with the application of light pressure is a chemical reaction.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, bonding occurs . Bonding results in destruction of old bond and formation of new bonds.Hence new substance with completely different properties is formed. These changes occur only in a chemical reaction .

In physical processes no new substance is formed (no bonding).So,no change in properties of a substance . ]

This process (capability of bonding to surfaces with the application of light pressure) results in chemical reaction.

This type of substances are called Pressure-sensitive Adhesives.(PSA)
