It is a physical change since there is no new product that is evolved.

It is not exothermic as it doesn’t give out heat, it absorbs heat (it is endothermic).

It is not ionic as it is not related to bonds.
It’s just H2O in both cases.

It is not a chemical change as there is no new product evolved.
