Detailed Solution

We know that there is no chemical reaction between solute and solvent. Hence the solution is a physical change. (a) is correct.

And, by using filtration and decantation we will not be able to separate the components of the solution. Hence, (b) and (c) is incorrect.

We also know that solution is a homogeneous mixture, and it cannot have any particular chemical formula. Hence, (d) is also incorrect.

Hence, option B is the answer.
