Answer:-

  • Sawing of piece of wood in half.

→ Physical; it is because no chemical properties are changed. They are same, just change is seen physically.

  • Burning of a piece of wood.

→ Chemical; it is because chemical changes are observed. Wood is converted into Carbon.

  • Rust forming on an iron fence.

→ Chemical; iron looses it's chemical properties on rusting. Thus, it is a chemical change.

  • A copper roof changing color from red to green.

→ Chemical; chemical change is observed.

Conclusion: Sawing a piece of wood in half is the answer.
