Physical Properties: The physical properties of a substance are those permanent properties which describe the physical characteristics of the material. Observation where possible, has no effect on the physical characteristic of the material.

Source: Science Fusion Holt McDougal "Matter and Energy" on page 22. It says, "A characteristic of a substance that can be observed and measured without changing the identity of the substance is called a physical property. Gold is one metal prized for its physical properties. Gold can be bent and shaped easily and has a lasting shine." No copyright intended, all rights go to the author, publisher, and Holt McDougal.

∙ 7y agoAt a 'macro' scale that we can observe with the naked eye, no effect. At the quantum level, observing physical properties can change them. The answer for chemistry, though, is 'no effect'.

What happens to the characteristics of a substance during a physical change?
The change in characteristics is entirely dependent on how you have physically changed it. However most physical changes effect shape and size.
What happens during a physical change?
In a physical change, color, shape, state, temperature, or texture can change. None of these effect the changes substance's chemical properties.
How does phase change effect the mass of a substance?
Phase change doesn't effect the mass of substance. However, it cause drastic change of density and the weight of substance may change due to buoyancy force.
Effect of the presence of other molecules on the diffusion of a given substance?
It explodes

The addition of any substance that has a negative effect on water or the living things that depend on water is called : [Polution] * I hope this has helped you
What effect does observing a substance have on physical properties on a substance?
It can be observed without changing the identity of the object.
What effect does observing physical properties have on the substance?
It can be observed without changing the identity of the object.
Is boiling point a chemical property?
No.It is a physical property of a substance.
Is the ability to combine with another substance physical?
The ability to combine with another substance is a chemical change. This is because once the substance is made it can not be taken out.
What physical effect can change the boiling of substance?
Pressure
What is the effect of physical changes?
Physical changes do not change the properties of the substance. You can get back the original state of the substance in most cases by reversing the physical process.
Which classification of property does not effect density?
Intensive property is the classification of property that does not affect density. In science, there are ten intensive properties of a substance.
Is freezing chemical or physical property?
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.
Does a chemical change cause a substance to have new physical properties?
It affects it so ya Anyways, water becomes black and shines really bright when it is affected to magnesium and cesium bromide
Why does temperature effect the physical state of matter?
a low temperature will freeze the substance, a high temperature will melt or turn the substance into vapor
Is buoyancy a chemical property?
Yes, buoyancy is considered a physical property. It is a type of physical property because it is related to the density and weight of the item, which are both physical.
Why is luster a physical property?
Luster is an optical phenomenon, the effect of interaction between light and a crystal.
