Physical property is an aspect of matter that can be observed or measured without changing, Chemical property may only be observed by changing the chemicals identity of a substance. (this was copied off a scientific website) :)
Chemical properties involve reacting with another substance. IE: burning of magnesium requires oxygen after which it is no longer magnesium. Physical properties do not. IE: metals are malleable, some very malleable, like copper wire can be bent with your hand. BUT it is still copper wire.
The chemical and physical properties of a compound are different than those of the elements from which it is formed.
In a physical change, the chemical composition of the substance undergoing the change remains the same. In a chemical change, atoms are rearranged, forming new products with their own unique chemical compositions and properties, different from the original substance or substances.
The way I remember the difference, is: a physical property is a property that you can observe without changing it (or observe without a chemical reaction). So properties like melting point, boiling point, density, color, hardness are all physical properties. A property like 'reacts with water' could only be observed by performing the reaction to observe the 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...)
You can tell the difference by knowing that a physical property changes shape and that a chemical property changes the substance.
A physical change changes the physical properties of an element like color where chemical changes change the chemical properties of an element and usually can't be undone.
These characteristics are chemical and physical properties.
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.
Chemical properties describe how a substance interacts with other substances to form new substances, such as reactivity or flammability. Physical properties describe the characteristics of a substance that can be observed or measured without changing its chemical composition, such as color, density, or melting point.
yes
the difference between a physical change and a chemical change is that a physical change is usually reversible whilst a chemical change is not reversible.

Characteristics we use to tell the difference between kinds of matter are called _________ Properties?
