B) Salt dissolves in water C) Oil and water do not mix. .D) Sodium reacts with water to form sodium hydroxide.

Explanation / Answer

1 - Experimentation :  The ancient Greek philosophers were probably the first to consider the behavior of matter in an organized way but they gave thesis over the behaviour of matter but Modern Scientists perform experiment of that particular specy and observe the result of the experiment and discuss those result in a panel and publish them.

2- Experimentation : in modern chemistry the experiments is performed result is discussed and than published

3- Ice melts at 0oC :

Physical change is a type of change in which the form of matter is altered but one substance is not transformed into another. The size or shape of matter may be changed, but no chemical reaction occurs.

Physical changes are usually reversible.

In this case ice and water are reversible

4- Sodium reacts with water and form Sodium hydroxide. : Chemical property is a property or characteristic of a substance that is observed during a reaction in which the chemical composition or identity of the substance is changed in this reaction in occuring in option D
