It is a physical change.
Most changes between solid and liquid matter are reversible, especially if it was done by freezing you can just expose it to room temperature and the Mercury will thaw and become liquid again. Or if you want to freeze it again, just freeze it by exposing it to the freezing temperature of mercury which is approximately
-38.83 oC.
No, freezing is a change of state, and therefore a physical change.
No. Mercury is and element and thus, from a chemical standpoint, as simple as a substance can get.
Yes. All that is happening is thermal expansion. All chemical identities remain the same.
physical change
Yes
Mercury because butter does not freeze. Butter does not have a freezing point. Butter is a fat that solidifies gradually as it gets colder and does not go through a phase change (freezing) abruptly like mercury or water.Although butter will become as solid as it gets at a temperature closer to that of the freezing point of water than the freezing point of mercury.
Neptune can reach way below freezing and Mercury can reach way above burning.
Mercury is the only metal that is liquid at room temperature. Mercury fumes are also toxic.
boiling point is 629K freezing point is 234K
Mercury
reversible. because you can melt it back to a liquid.
Freezing mercury is a physical change. It can be reversed by raising the temperature above the freezing point.
It's reversible. When you raise the temperature of frozen mercury, it 'melts' back into liquid form (just like ice melts back into water when you warm it).
During freezing the chemical nature of mercury remain unchanged.

The freezing point of mercury is -38,829 0C.
Yes, freezing anything is a change of state.
Both
At mercury's own freezing temperature, the mercury can be either solid or liquid; that is the definition of "freezing temperature".
About -39 C. or about -38 F.
