Perfect 4th
A fourth and fifth interval, or as you called it, chord, is perfect is because it doesn't sound right in both a major or minor scale. Now, I know that isn't my most specific answer, but basically, one of the more plain major of minor chords, is a third. Let's say, if it was a C major third, it would have C and E, which would have to be major, due to the fact that there isn't a E in C minor, but instead, E flat. Yet, if it were to be a fifth interval chord, it would have to be perfect, because the G (fifth interval), appears in both C major and C minor. So...yeah...
A perfect 5th is an interval that covers the range of 7 half steps. The name Perfect is used to distinguish it from other intervals, like 3rds and 7ths, that have major and minor versions.
Here's the order of Consonance - Perfect Fifth , Major Third / Minor Sixth , Minor Third / Major Sixth , Major Second / Minor Seventh , Minor Second / Major Seventh . Can you help me include the other intervals - Tritonic ( also known as augmented Fourth or Diminished Fifth ) , Perfect Fourth ??
One whole step.
Within an octave there are four perfect intervals: perfect unison (P1), perfect fourth (P4), perfect fifth (P5), and perfect octave (P8).
A triad consists of three notes: the tonic (or the first note of the scale), the mediant (or the third note of the scale), and the dominant (or the fifth note of the scale).For a major triad, the interval between the first and third note is a major third, and the interval between the first and fifth note is a perfect fifth.For a minor triad, the interval between the first and third note is a minor third, and the interval between the first and fifth is a perfect fifth.

Perfect Fifth. In a D Major Scale, the tones are D E F# G A B C# D so if you count up from D with D as number one the fifth tone is the A. In this case you could also refer to it as a Major Fifth.
A C to a G would be a perfect fifth. Because the interval was decreased by 2 half-steps (by sharping the C and flatting the G), the interval C sharp to G flat is a double-diminished 5th.
A diminished fifth is considered dissonant.
An octave is not a fifth. A fifth is any interval of exactly 7 half-steps. An octave is any interval of exactly 12 half-steps.
In Music, we speak of inverted intervals, chords or phrases. An inverted interval is just like an inverted fraction. It's upside down. Think of a fifth, C on the bottom, G on the top. Now put the G on the bottom and the C on the top. An inverted fifth becomes a fourth and vice versa. An inverted third becomes a sixth and vice versa. Think of a regular triad in root position: root, third and fifth. If you put the third as the lowest note, we call that the first inversion. If you put the fifth as the lowest note, we call that the second inversion.
The fifth perfect number is 33,550,336.
. 1. made smaller or less: a diminished role for local government.∎ made to seem less impressive or valuable: she felt diminished by the report.2. Mus. denoting or containing an interval that is one semitone less than the corresponding minor or perfect interval: a diminished fifth.
An augmented fifth is an interval spanning eight semitones and five note names - for example, from C to G sharp.
