A physical property can be observed without changing the chemical composition of the substance. A chemical property can only be observed during a chemical change in which the chemical composition of the substance changes.
A physical property is like this:
You take a stapler and bang it on the counter. It would be a broken stapler but it is still a stapler. It is still metal. Or even if you sawed it in half. It is still metal but it is metal in two pieces.
A chemical property is like this:
You take a block of wood and burn it. It is now ash. You have changed the material. Chemical changes are rarely reversable. You have taken wood and changed it into ash.
No. Chemical and physical properties are different.
Physical and chemical properties change as the result of a chemical change, which produces new products with different physical and chemical properties than the reactants.
Shiny and silvery are not chemical properties. These are physical properties.
LPG (liquefied petroleum gas) is a mixture of propane and butane. It is highly flammable and has a narrow flammability range. It can be easily compressed into a liquid for storage and transportation.
A chemical change is when the chemical properties of a substance changes and a physical change is when the chemical properties stay the same but the physical properties (shape, temperature etc...)
Batteries store energy in chemical form and convert it to electrical energy. They have physical properties such as size, weight, and shape, as well as chemical properties including the types of materials used in the electrodes and electrolyte. Key characteristics include voltage, capacity, energy density, discharge rate, and cycle life.
it changes chemical properties
The chemical properties of a substance change during a chemical reaction, meaning the substance undergoes a chemical change and forms new substances with different properties. The physical properties may also change, such as color, texture, or state of matter.
Odor, color, density, and solubility are physical properties of a substance. These properties can be observed or measured without changing the chemical composition of the substance.
octane is not a chemical or physical property. Properties are what define something not what they are. So octane has both chemical and physical properties.
Chemical property
Chemical properties describe how a substance interacts with other substances to form new substances, such as reactivity or flammability. Physical properties describe the characteristics of a substance that can be observed or measured without changing its chemical composition, such as color, density, or melting point.
