yes it is.
The freezing point is a physical property because it describes a characteristic of a substance (temperature at which it freezes) without changing the chemical composition of the substance. When a substance freezes, it undergoes a physical change from a liquid to a solid, not a chemical change.
Hardness is a physical property that describes the ability of a substance to resist deformation. Ability to react with oxygen is a chemical property that describes how a substance interacts with oxygen. Color is a physical property that describes the visual appearance of a substance. Freezing point is a physical property that indicates the temperature at which a substance changes from a liquid to a solid.
No, water freezing at 0 degrees is a physical property, not a chemical property. This change in state from liquid to solid is a result of the temperature of the water reaching a certain point, and does not involve any chemical reactions.
Examples: Iron Rusting: CHEMICAL CHANGE The ABILITY for Iron to rust: Chemical PROPERTY Ice freezing: Physical CHANGE Water's ABILITY to evaporate: Physical PROPERTY
Because when something freezes, the atoms and molecules don't undergo a chemical change, they go through a physical change. By this, I mean that the individual atoms and molecules lose kinetic energy (energy that makes you move) in order to freeze. There is no chemical change here. Rather, the molecules and atoms are slowing down physically.

I believe it is physical because you are not changing the chemical compound.

Freezing is a physical change because the substance that freezes does not change its chemical composition.
physical, ice is still H2O

I would say that freezing point is a boiling property because there is no scientific evidence to suggest that it is or indeed ever will be a chemical property. Freezing point is a chemical reaction. Therefor this is a debatable question. Different people may have different views. This is mine."Freezing point" is usually termed as "melting point" in scientific circles. Melting point is defined as the temperature at which the solid and liquid phase of a substance coexist at equilibrium under the pressure of their own vapors. Ice and water coexist at equilibrium at temperature of 32 degrees F when only their own vapor pressures are acting upon them. However, the temperature difference at atmospheric pressure is negligible. As you can see, melting point (freezing point) only depends on the physical conditions acting on the substance, therefore, melting point (freezing point) is a physical property. Melting point is effected (lowered) by the addition of other molecules or ions to the substance. This effect is physical because it depends only upon the number of particles (molecules etc) added and no chemical reaction is required.
No, boiling points and freezing points are physical properties.
Boiling point and freezing point are examples of physical properties. They describe the characteristics of a substance that can be observed or measured without changing the chemical composition of the substance.
