The observation that most likely indicates that only a chemical change has taken place is "the change cannot be reversed." This is because a chemical change involves the formation or breaking of chemical bonds, leading to the creation of new substances with different properties. Once a chemical change occurs, it is typically not possible to revert back to the original substances through simple physical means.
