Malleability is a degree of softness allowing something to be reshaped. Therefore it is a physical property.

What are characteristics are physical properties and which are chemical properties?

Chemical properties- properties that do change the chemical nature of matter.For example the heat of combustion, reactivity with water, PH, and electromotive force. Physical properties-properties that do not change the chemical nature of water. For example color, smell, freezing point, boilig point, melting point, infra red-spectrum, attraction(paramagnetic) or repulsion(diamagnetic) to magnets, opacity,viscosity and density.


In what ways do metals differ from each other?

The chemical and physical properties are very different; for example: color, density, melting point, boiling point, chemical reactivity, hardness, mechanical properties, electrical conductivity, etc.


How are physical and chemical properties of matter useful?

Physical and chemical properties of matter are useful because they can help you identify that substance. For example paper burns very easily and aluminum doesn't, this is how they can be described individually.


How will you classify matter as physical or chemical?

Physical never changes what it is; For example if you boil water its physical because you can change it back to water from precipitation, or if you tear a sheet of paper up it's still paper. Chemical- changes it's whole from it can never go back to what it was; Example, burning wood


1 Bending a copper wire is an example of what type of property?

It is a physical property. Malleability is a physical property in lots of metals (including copper). It is not a characteristic property, because it is not unique to copper. (Other metals share the same property).

10 examples of physical properties and chemical properties?

physical properties are properties that can ONLY ne observed by changing the chemical identidy of the substance. example: ph,flammibility, wether it dissolves or not,how it reacts to water... physical properties are properties that can be observed without having to change the substance. example: smoothness, wetness, its color ,its smell ,its texture...hope it helped ----------------------------------------------- Physical properties: density, color, hardness, electrical conductivity, thermal conductivity, viscosity, tensile strength, malleability, magnetic properties, refractive index, etc. Chemical properties: reactivity, solubility, aptitude to thermal degradation, toxicologic properties, valences, heat of combustion, enthapy of formation, flammability, bonding type, oxydation reactions, etc.

No , it is chemical property .


Is burning a tortilla chemical or physical change?

Chemical; you are changing the physical properties of the tortilla. Physical would be just warming or cooling it for example
