Each of the following observations is made when a substance is gently heated in an open test tube. W. Green CuCO₃·Cu(OH)₂ turns black and releases a colorless gas that turns limewater cloudy. X. Yellow sulfur powder melts to a red liquid and solidifies back to yellow on cooling. Y. White AgNO₃ crystals darken to black while a reddish–brown gas is released. Z. White wax pellets melt to a clear liquid and resolidify unchanged on cooling. Which ranking lists the observations from strongest to weakest evidence of a chemical change? a) Y>W>X>ZY > W > X > Z b) W>X>Y>ZW > X > Y > Z c) W>Y>X>ZW > Y > X > Z d) Y>X>W>ZY > X > W > Z
