To accurately determine the type of change that took place in the beaker, I would need to see the images you mentioned and understand the context of the observed changes. However, I can provide some general guidance on how to distinguish between the options given:
- **A. Phase change**: This involves a change in the state of matter, such as melting, freezing, evaporation, or condensation. If the beaker contains a substance transitioning between solid, liquid, or gas, then a phase change may have occurred.
- **B. Volume change**: This refers to a change in the amount of space an object or substance occupies, which could happen without any phase change.
- **C. Physical change**: This involves changes that do not alter the chemical composition of the substance. Examples include changes in form, size, or state, like dissolving or breaking.
- **D. Chemical change**: This involves a change that produces one or more new substances with different properties, often indicated by a color change, gas production, or temperature change.
Without more context or the specific images, I can't definitively answer your question, but you can analyze the changes based on the descriptions above to select the correct option.
