When quartz is broken it has a conchoidal fracture. Fracture is the appearance of the broken plane of a mineral. A conchodal fracture is described a being curved, and looking like broken glass.
One physical property that can be used to distinguish quartz from amphibole is hardness. Quartz has a hardness of 7 on the Mohs scale, while amphibole minerals like hornblende have a hardness ranging from 5 to 6. Additionally, quartz typically has a glassy luster, while amphibole minerals have a dull to vitreous luster.
Being brittle is a physical property.
Grinding quartz crystals down to produce sand is an example of physical change. When you grind quartz down to sand, you change the physical appearance of the quartz.
It is a physical property.
Dullness is a physical property.
Quartz is silicon dioxide (SiO2); quartz is not a property.

Being brittle is a physical property.
Brittle is indeed a physical property. This physical property affects how a substance may be shaped or how it appears without having an affect on the chemical composition.

The property of minerals that break with jagged surfaces is called "fracture." This type of breakage occurs when a mineral does not break along cleavage planes but instead produces irregular, rough surfaces. Fracture can be categorized as conchoidal (smooth and curved) or uneven (jagged and rough).

The physical property of DDT that contributes to its bioaccumulation in animals is its inability to break down easily. This results in it being stored in the fatty issues of animals.
The state of matter is a physical property.
