Chemical properties are those which pertain to the kinds of chemical reactions which a given substance undergoes. For example, whether a given material is flammable or inflammable is a chemical property. Wood will burn, water won't burn. A physical property is any other measurable property such as density, color, tensile strength, flexibility, phase (solid, liquid, or gas) and so forth.

Is there a way to decide whether a chemical is a gas or liquid just by looking at its physical properties?

Yes, a chemical's boiling point and room temperature are key physical properties that can help determine whether it will exist as a gas or liquid. If its boiling point is below room temperature, it will likely be a gas, while if it is above room temperature, it will likely be a liquid. Other factors such as pressure can also influence whether a chemical exists as a gas or liquid.


Is Density physical or chemical. Tell whether each physical property is extensive or intensive?

Density is a physical property of matter, defined as mass per unit volume. It is considered an intensive property because it does not depend on the amount of substance present; for example, the density of a material remains consistent regardless of how much of that material you have. In contrast, extensive properties, like mass and volume, change depending on the quantity of the substance.


What is the difference between a chemical and physical property?

physical properties are those that can be seen or measured without changing a material. chemical properties tell how the substance forms new substances when it mixes with something else.

The melting of ice is a physical not, not a chemical change. You can tell this because the chemical composition of ice and water are exactly the same, i.e. they are both H2O. Only the physical property has changed since one is a solid and one is a liquid.
