Why is it helpful to know the the physical and chemical properties of a substance?
In is impossible to work with materials, substances etc. without a deep knowledge of all chemical and physical properties. And all around us: foods, building materials, electronics, cars, drugs are composed from materials with specific properties.
Why might it be helpful to know the specific gravity of a mineral?
If we know the physical or chemical properties of substances (including minerals) we can identify these minerals easier.
What physical properties of the sample is most helpful to determine if the liquid is water color mass volume boiling point?
boiling point. (The Boiling point of water is 100 oC.)
How is knowing the properties of liquids helpful?
Knowing the properties of fuel is very helpful. For eg, if we know its burning temperature and amount of calories produced, we can determine its efficiency to be used as a fuel. also by knowing the properties of viscosity we can determine its rate of flow, how to efficiently use it for the various purposes. Properties help to determine the best use of the liquid and thus increasing efficiency and productivity.
What physical properties are most helpful when identifing similar objects?
It depends on the objects. the properties that help compare an eyeball to a marble for example, are much different then the properties that are going to be most helpful to compare a car to a truck.
How is a chemical change different from a physical change?
a physical change can be reversed a chemical one can'tA chemical change is when a new substance, with new and different properties, is produced. The identity of the original substance is changed. In contrast, a physical change is when one or more of a substance's physical properties have simply been altered; no new substance is produced.

Cooking an apple is chemical or physical change?
cooking an apple is causing a physical change because in a physical change, the IDENTITY of the substance never changes. (identity=atomic makeup. in a chemical change, the IDENTITY does change, due to a chemical reaction. because there is no change in the identity of the apple, baking it is a physical change

What is a chemical reaction and how are reactants and products involved?
A chemical reaction is a change in which one kind of matter changes into a different kind of matter with different properties. Reactant is a substance used in a chemical reaction and a product is a substance made in a chemical reaction. Hope this is helpful! ;)
