Physical and Chemical Properties of Matter

Описание: General Chemistry 1 SHS

Properties that are observed or measured without changing the identity or the composition of the substance are called physical properties. Examples of physical properties are size, shape, color, solubility, magnetic character, density and volatility.

Properties that are measured with an accompanying chemical change in the substance are called chemical properties. Chemical properties usually describe how a substance reacts. Examples of chemical properties are flammability, decomposition at high temperatures, reactivity to an acid or a base, and reactivity to an oxidizing or reducing agent.
