Is the melting point of a substance considered a chemical property?

It just means that one liquid can be distinguished from another by its boiling point because it is a characteristic or property of that particular liquid.

∙ 13y agoit means that each substance has its own unique melting point. you can use the melting point to determine what the substance is.
hi

∙ 15y agoYes, it is a characteristic property.The melting point property of an element doesn't change even if the amount of that element changes.
Wiki User
∙ 10y agoAt the melting point a substance is transformed from the solid phase in the liquid phase.
Wiki User
∙ 7y agoit is a physical change

Which of these is an description of chemical property?
Chemical property is evident from a chemical reaction. The chemical properties cannot be determined just by viewing or touching the substance.
If its melting point is 112c is it a physical or chemical property of sulfur?
chemical
Is ice melting at 0 degrees Celsius a chemical property?
a physical change, it's chemical formula is still H2O
Is milk sours a physical or chemical change?
chemical change
Sulfur has a bright yellow color is this physical or cheimical property?
Its colour, its melting point, its boiling point, whether it is magnetic or not, whether it is an electrical conductor or not and its atomic mass are all physical properties.
Is a melting point considered a physical or chemical property?
A melting point is a physical property.
Why the melting point of a substance is a physical property but flammability is a chemical property?
When a substance melts, it changes state from solid to liquid. This does not alter the substance's chemical composition, so melting point is a physical property. Flammability means burning, and when a substance burns, it reacts with oxygen to produce a new substance that was not there before. This is therefore a chemical property.
Is a solid at 98 degrees a physical or chemical property?
It is purely a Physical Property. Fusing (melting) involves no chemical reactions. The melting point of a substance is hard wired in the physical properties of a substance.
Is ice melting a chemical or physical property?
Physical, chemical is one that affects the chemical make up of the substance.
Why is melting a physical property of the wax but flammability in a chemical property?
Melting doesn't change the composition of a compound (substance).Burning is a chemical reaction, an oxidation - new compounds are formed.
Is melting point classified as a chemical property or a physical property?
physical. melting does not change the substance; it only changes the state of matter (or the movement of particles).
Why is the melting point of a substance is a physical property but flammability is a chemical property?
In the state of matter you can use all five senses without having to change the substance (physical property). With chemical property you are altering the substance so you are able to observe it.
Is a melting point a chemical property?
melting is a physical property, not chemical property.
What is melting physical proreties of wax but frammabillty is a change propeties?
Melting is a physical property because it only changes the physical state of the substance, such as wax, but does not change its physical or chemical properties. This is because melting is not a chemical reaction. Flammability, however, is a chemical property, and when a substance burns, that is a chemical reaction, and the physical and chemical properties of the products will be different than the reactants (starting substances).

Is melting point a chemical property or a physical?
It is a physical property, so is boiling point.
