Answer

1: physical; 2: recovers its original

Explanation

The statement is broadly addressing changes of state, which could refer to transition from for example, solid to liquid (melting) or liquid to gas (vaporization). In Chemistry, these processes are recognized as physical changes, as they only change the physical properties (appearance, state, etc.) of a substance, but do not alter the substance's chemical components or identity. When a change of state (physical change) is revered i.e., from gas back to liquid (condensation) or liquid to solid (freezing), the material retains its original properties. It hasn't created any new substance, meaning no new chemical reaction or change has ensued.
