Answer»

Condensation of steam is a physical change because H2O changes its state from liquid to solid.
Glowing of an ELECTRIC BULB is a physical change because the TUNGSTEN filament in it becomes extremely hot and begins to glow (but no change in chemical composition occurs).
Respiration is a chemical change as oxidation (reaction with oxygen) occurs.
Photosynthesis in plants is a chemical change as a reaction between CO2 and water to give glucose and O2 occurs.
Beating gold into a thin FOIL is a physical change as only the SHAPE and not the chemical composition of gold changes.
