The valency of the electron shells
All atoms want to have a full outside shell and do so by either removing, gaining or sharing electrons. If they only have to remove or gain one electron, they will do so quite easily and are reactive.

Do chemical changes affect the chemical structure of a substance?
yes chemical properties do change a substance physical properties just change the physical shape or look!!!
Can the chemical properties of a substance be observed without changing the substance?
physical properties
Can the substance that take part in a chemical reaction keep their properties?
No. The essence of a chemical reaction is the alteration of the chemical structure of the substance. The reaction that allows for the substance to keep their properties is the physical reaction.
What are two physical properties that can that can vary when the substance with these physical properties that dose not change?
Temperature and amount of the substance do not change chemical properties.
Does chemical changes change in the identity of a substance due to its chemical properties?
no
What is the relationship between the chemical properties of a substance and the chemical change of substance?
The chemical properties of an object show what a chemical change did to that substance.
How are characteristic properties of given substance different from its other properties and chemical properties?
A substance's characteristic properties are the most recognizable properties of that substance. Chemical properties are exhibited as one substance is chemically transformed into another (e.g., iron rusting).
Do chemical changes affect the chemical structure of a substance?
yes chemical properties do change a substance physical properties just change the physical shape or look!!!
What is the diffence between physical and chemical properties as well an physical and chemical changes?
Physical properties can be observed without changing the chemical composition of a substance. Chemical properties can only be observed by changing the chemical composition of the substance. In a physical change, the chemical composition of the substance does not change. In a chemical change, the chemical composition of the substance changes.
What are the properties of an element?
pure substance,and chemical substance,
What is the relationship between the chemical property of a substance and the chemical changes of a substance?
The chemical properties of an object show what a chemical change did to that substance.
Can the chemical properties of a substance be observed without changing the substance?
physical properties
What does a chemical property give a substance the ability to do?
A chemical property is the properties exhibited by a material in a chemical reaction. This gives a substance the ability to have a chemical identity and is also used in building chemical classifications. The properties can be used in identifying a substance that is unknown or to separate substances. The property also helps in providing information on the application of a substance.
Properties that determine the chemical changes that a substance goes through are known as?
Chemical properties
What does a change in a chemical properties of a substance result in?
A chemical reaction (change) results in a change in chemical properties.
Different substances can be classified by their chemical properties or properties that?
SUBSTANCE
Compare and contrast chemical and physical properties?
Physical properties are characteristics of a pure substance that can be observed without changing it into another substance. Chemical properties are characteristics of a pure substance that describes its ability to change into different substance.
