argon is a noble gas, number 18 with a mass of about 40 amu. noble gases almost never make compounds, so it's chemical property is that it is almost totally unreactive with other elements. Physically it is a gas until just about minus 200 centigrade, when it can liquify. gases have very low density. there's not much going on with noble gases, they're called noble as an insult to the nobility of the European aristocracy. The nobles never mingled with the peasants, and isolated themselves from the rest of society. Noble gases never "mingle" with peasant elements either.

In a physical change some of the physical properties of the substance may be altered and the chemical composition?

In a physical change, the chemical composition of the substance remains the same, but some physical properties like shape, size, or state may change. This means that the substance can be reversed back to its original state without undergoing a chemical reaction.


Compare and contrast how do chemical and physical properties differ?

chemical properties deal with how an object or substance reacts to other substances (usually a solution, or gas, or some aqueous medium... any medium really). physical properties deal with the more noticeable stuff like strength, stiffness, toughness (and yes they all mean different things), brittleness, etc. etc.


Can 2 elements have some of the same properties?

Yes, elements can have similar properties if they are in the same chemical group or have the same number of valence electrons. This can lead to similarities in their chemical reactivity and physical characteristics.


What elements probably has physical and chemical properties most similar to boron?

Aluminum and silicon are elements that likely have physical and chemical properties most similar to boron. They are in the same group as boron on the periodic table and share some similar characteristics in terms of reactivity and bonding.


What is the difference between physical and chemical characteristics?

Matter have two essential types of properties, those are physical properties and chemical properties. Among its physical properties are smell, color, freezing point and boiling point, density, opacity and viscosity. Among chemical properties are reactivity with water, PH, electromotive force and heat of combustion.

What are of the Chemical Properties of Calcium?

Some chemical properties of calcium is that it's highly reactive. I have searched some other chem. properties but all i get is a good conductor, soluble, and an alkaline earth metal. but those are PHYSICAL properties, so I've only found that it's reactive as a chemical property.

What is the difference between the chemical and physical properties for sodium chloride?

For all materials physical properties are related to some characteristics as density, hardness, refractive index etc. and the chemical properties are related to some characteristics as chemical reactivity, flammability, oxydation etc. Physical properties are characterized by getting back the original material by changing its form, state, etc. Chemical properties are characterized by a complete change in the material itself i.e. you cannot get back the same material.
