Chemical property is the property of the substances that describes the ability of the substance to involve in chemical reactions. Physical property is that which does not change the chemical composition of the substances. The following properties of water that it is transparent and tasteless in its pure form and it freezes at a temperature of [tex]0^{0}C[/tex] are physical properties as they simply indicate the change in physical state without any change in chemical composition of water.
The other two properties that water reacts with halogens to form oxygen gas as one of the products and water decomposes to form hydrogen and oxygen are chemical properties as the chemical composition of water changes in the given reaction.
Therefore the correct answer is b. 1 and 4
