physical property, because physical properties can be observed without changing the substance; chemical properties must undergo a chemical change to observe it's chemical potential
Color can be most easily understood at the reflection of light off a material that is recognised by the chemical changes it causes to the rods and cones of a person's eyes.

Light or (or photon) is energy that we perceive with our eyes just as heat is energy you perceive as heat. The range of energy that we can perceive with our eyes is called the "visible range" and can often be seen in the rainbow. The difference between the infrared energy and the visible light energy is the frequency.
......
If we take a prism and pass white light through it we see the colors of light. the prism has caused a (Refraction) physical change in the white light and separated it into the various frequencies that cause different chemical changes in our eyes that our brains identify as colors.
......
An object such as the fruit we know as an orange has a skin that our eyes perceive as orange in color because the same white light hits the orange and only the reflected frequencies that impact our eyes are those that cause the chemical changes that our brains identify as the orange color.
......
With this understanding of how we perceive color we should be able to answer is color a chemical or physical property of matter.
......
Given that a change in color is fundamentally the change in the ability to physically change what frequencies of light are reflected back to, and perceived by the eye.
......
This has nothing to do with what caused the change in reflectivity and further suggests that color is an indicator rather that an actual property of matter when discussing the nitty gritty of things

∙ 12y agoColor is not a physical change, it is a physical property. It is considered a physical property because, while it is an obvious property, it has nothing to do with how it reacts with other substances.
