A physical change would be a change in a physical property. A "physical property", by itself, may or may not change.

Which branch of physical science studies the properties of matter and changes in matter?

The branch of physical science studies the properties of matter and changes in matter is known as chemistry. This is a branch which is mainly concerned with atoms and molecules and how they interact.


Properties that change when the size of an object changes are called?

Properties that change when the size of an object changes are called dependent properties. These properties are influenced by the scale or dimensions of the object and are not fixed values. Examples include mass, volume, and surface area.


What are the products of physical change?

The products of a physical change are the same as what you started out with because their have been no changes to its chemical properties. Ex: If you rip a piece of paper, it's still paper.


Methods scientist use to determine physical changes?

Scientists use various methods to determine physical changes, such as measuring changes in size, shape, color, state of matter, density, and temperature. Techniques like microscopy, spectroscopy, chromatography, and X-ray diffraction can be employed to analyze physical properties and identify any alterations. Additionally, observing changes in physical properties over time or under different conditions can also help scientists understand and characterize physical changes.


In a physical change some of the substances in a material change but the properties if the material stay the same?

Yes, in a physical change, the arrangement or state of the particles in a substance can change, but the chemical composition and fundamental properties remain the same. Examples of physical changes include changes in state (solid to liquid), size, shape, or phase transitions.

Why do physical properties change when chemicals combine?

Physical properties change when chemicals combine because when you mix chemicals the physical properties changes it identity.


Why is melting point a physical property?

It's a physical property because only the appearance changes, ie, the chemical properties are still the same. Ice and liquid water are chemically the same, but differ physically.


What are physical and chemical?

physical changes do not change the chemical properties of a substance


What is the relationship of the chemical properties and the physical properties?

physical propertys do something but dont change.Chemical changes toataly change


Can matter undergo changes in both its physical and its chemical properties?

Yes, matter can undergo changes in both its physical and chemical properties. Physical properties changes do not alter the composition of the substance, such as changing state from solid to liquid. Chemical properties changes involve a chemical reaction that results in the formation of new substances with different chemical compositions.


Are color and density chemical changes?

Color and density are physical properties, not changes.


How do chemical and physical properties differ?

chemical properties cannot be determined just by viewing or touching the substance and physical properties can be observed or measured without changing the composition of matter.


What properties of matter are affected by physical changes?

The properties of matter that are affected by a physical change is for example, there is a house then it gets destroyed that is a physical change.


Why is paper's physical properties different from water's physical properties?

There are a lot of reasons why paper's physical properties differ from water's physical properties.Paper is a solid, water is a liquid.Water is transparent, paper is not.Water flows smoothly, paper does not.etc.
