When a physical change occurs, the compound stays the same. For example, if you boil water, the chemical formula still remains H2O and is a physical change. However, if you were to change the chemical formula, it would be a chemical change. If H2O were split into H2 and O2 gas, it would be a chemical change.

Is soft a physical property?

It would most likely be a physical change because ... well I'm assuming you mean changing from hard to soft. A chemical change means that a new substance has formed but in this case, only the physical properties are changed as only the hardness has changed.

Is it possible for some matter to change under some circumstances and not be called as mixture?

Yes, there are countless ways of changing matter, and perhaps you should be more specific to what type of change e.g. physical or chemical. If you mean a simple physical change then for example altering the shape of the matter is a way of changing it, and so is altering the size or mass. In chemical changes it is also possible to change matter without it becoming a mixture there are many ways of doing it so as to change the matter and create a compound or compounds, or to change it by creating separate elements not mixed.


Is sublimation a physical change or physical property?

Sublimation is a physical change, as it involves a substance transitioning directly from a solid to a gas without passing through the liquid phase. It is not a physical property, but a phenomenon observed in specific substances under certain conditions.
