Characteristics of a substance can be used to identify it. Characteristics can be either physical or chemical.
Example:
Hydrogen, H2
Physical characteristics - a colourless, odourless diatomic gas. Density, solubility, boiling and melting point, specific gravity are all physical characteristics. A physical characteristic can be observed or measured without changing the nature of the substance.
Chemical characteristics - hydrogen reacts with oxygen exothermically to produce water. 2H2 + O2 --> 2H2O. Chemical characteristics change the nature of the substance ie how they react.
What else can I help you with?
When different kinds of atoms join together what do they make?
When different kinds of atoms join together, they form molecules or compounds. The specific arrangement and types of atoms will determine the properties and characteristics of the resulting substance.
What is the difference between the properties of a substance and the properties of an object?
The properties of a substance are inherent in that substance, for example steel, but steel can be used to make all sorts of different objects. Each object has its own properties, but the basic property of steel is the same in all of them (for the same grade of steel)
What are particles of one substance?
Particles of one substance refer to the individual units that make up that specific substance. For example, in a sample of water, the particles would be the individual molecules of H2O. The properties of the substance are determined by the characteristics and interactions of its particles.
Is the particles of a pure substance different?
No, the particles of a pure substance are all the same kind. In a pure substance, such as an element or a compound, the particles are identical in their chemical makeup. This is what distinguishes a pure substance from a mixture, where different substances can be present in varying proportions.
What is a Substance added to another to increase pliability called?
A substance added to another to increase its pliability is called a plasticizer. Plasticizers are chemicals that are added to materials such as plastics, rubber, or concrete to make them softer and more flexible.
What causes a substance to combine in different way to make another substance?
it is something that has to do with metabolism but maybe you can search it up or ask someone!
What characteristics make flubber such an unusual substance?
science fiction does the trick.
What is the change that a substance goes through to make another substance?
Chemical change
When different kinds of atoms join together what do they make?
When different kinds of atoms join together, they form molecules or compounds. The specific arrangement and types of atoms will determine the properties and characteristics of the resulting substance.
What do you call a substance that combines together and make another substance?
I suppose that you think to a reactant.
Why can't we use the same substance to make everything?
Water is a substance!!!! So how could you make houses with water. How could you make clothes with water. We need different substances for different things. !!!!!
What is a substance that can dissolve another substance called?
The substance (usually a liquid) that can dissolve another substance is called a solvent.The substance that is being dissolved in a solution is called the solute.
When an element is combined to another element the substance is what?
When an element is combined with another element, the resulting substance is called a compound. Compounds are formed through chemical reactions where atoms of different elements bond together to form a new substance with unique properties.
What is the difference between the properties of a substance and the properties of an object?
The properties of a substance are inherent in that substance, for example steel, but steel can be used to make all sorts of different objects. Each object has its own properties, but the basic property of steel is the same in all of them (for the same grade of steel)

What make people get to be different to one another?
People are different from one another because of character. They may be unique in character, in looks and in attitudes. However, everyone has something similar, i.e. we're all human beings (and we share human characteristics and have feelings)
