Answer:

Lighting the stove and cooking the meat are both chemical changes.

Light the stove with a match and boiling the noodles are both chemical changes

Step-by-step explanation:

A chemical change is said to have occurred when the change is irreversible and a new substance is formed in the process. A physical change is reversible and no new substance is formed in the process.

When meat is cooked, it becomes soft due to a chemical reaction that occurs. Also, boiling noodles, softens the noodles due to a chemical change. When a match stick is lit, the fire that is observed occurs as a result of a chemical change (reaction).
