Obviously, air has more than four properties. However, this question is most likely inquiring about four basic properties of air that you could explain and demonstrate to a child to prove that it exists. That being said, the four most basic properties of air are:

  • It takes up space.
  • It has a measurable mass.
  • It exerts pressure; i.e., it fills up whatever container it's in.
  • Air has temperature

Note: Their are many types properties of matter these are only some.

Properties seen when one substance changes to another are known as?

there are two types of change. the first one is the physical change. the form or appearance of the substance is change but the chemical properties of the substance is not changed. example, water evaporates into the air, that is a physical change because from liquid, water changes into gas but it then comes back to water as rain. the other one is chemical change wherein the chemical properties of the substance is changed. example is burning of wood. wood is burned and turned into charcoal. the chemical properties of wood is different from the chemical properties of charcoal and charcoal is another substance.


Difference between chemical and physical change?

A chemical change is when the chemical properties of a substance changes and a physical change is when the chemical properties stay the same but the physical properties (shape, temperature etc...)


What are the chemical properties of sugar?

SUGAR is a carbohydrate.If we talkk about its chemical properties,it is jst a simple molecule composed of glucose (or starch).


What kind of properties can be observed only when the substances in a sample of matter are changing into different substances?

Yes, chemical properties can be determined only experimentally, as a consequence of chemical reactions. But, today chemists can made some predictions about chemical properties of a substance on the basis of existing data about chemical and physical properties.


How do chemical and physical properties differ?

chemical properties cannot be determined just by viewing or touching the substance and physical properties can be observed or measured without changing the composition of matter.

Is air sensitivity a physical or chemical properties?

It is a chemical property as air sensitive compounds react with oxygen or air to yield a different compound. Physical properties don't alter the composition of the compound but rather the behaviour through different molecular arrangement.

Is reacts with air a chemical or physical change?

When a substance reacts with air, it typically undergoes a chemical change. This is because the interaction with air usually involves a chemical reaction where new substances are formed with different properties than the original substance.


What are chemical and physical properties of gasoline?

Gasoline has various chemical properties (particularly, it burns very well) and its combustion products have other chemical properties (they don't burn as well) but it would not be correct to say that gasoline in any sense BECOMES a chemical property. Chemicals have properties, they don't become properties.


Is Mg burned in air chemical or physical?

Burning Mg in air is a chemical change. When magnesium reacts with oxygen in the air, it forms magnesium oxide. This is a chemical reaction that results in the formation of a new substance with different properties than the original magnesium.


How do you measure chemical properties?
