Answer: Option (a) is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Chemical changes are defined as the change which tend to show difference in chemical composition of a substance.

For example, toxicity, reactivity, combustion etc are all chemical properties.

A chemical change will always lead to the formation of a new compound and this change is irreversible in nature by any physical means.

On the other hand, a change which is unable to bring any difference in chemical composition of a substance is known as a physical change.

For example, change in shape, size, mass, volume etc are all physical properties.

Physical changes are reversible in nature.

So, when Danny takes the snow indoors and watches it melt is a physical change.

Thus, we can conclude that the situation in which she takes it indoors and watches it melt is a physical change.
