Is a odor a physical or chemical change?

AnswerNeither. Odor is not a change at all. Odor is airborne molecules that have a particular smell. A change is a process and odor is not a process. The things which cause odors can be either physical or chemical. For instance, the body odor is caused by chemical changes, but if you open jar of a smelly chemical, that is a physical change (some of the molecules of the chemical are evaporating and are thus airborne).When talking about mixing chemicals and substances, a change in odor is a chemical change.(I assume this is what you meant when you asked is odor a chemical or physical change)

Is odor physical property or chemical property?

Odor is by many considered as chemical interaction with nasal odor receptors, though this is still under dispute.I, personally, would be more of the 'physical' odor perception, because the odor-creating molecules (eg. in perfume) do not change at all while being 'percepted' in your nose.However there are also undoubtly pure chemical odor perceptions, like those of (gaseous) 'acids', 'ammonia', 'formalin' and hydrogen sulfide.
