1. Physical Properties

2. Physical Properties:
Properties can be observed without changing the substance
Properties observed using your five senses

3. Physical Properties include:
Color
Luster
Mass
Magnetism
Size
Smell
Shape
Taste
Volume
Density
Boiling point
Conduction
Melting point
Malleability
State of matter
Ductility
Hardness

4. Luster
Shininess
The way light is reflected off the surface

5. Density
The ratio of the mass of a substance to the volume of the substance
M/V

6. Conduction
Heat transfer through a substance or from one substance to another by direct contact of molecules

7. Malleability
Ability to be hammered out into a thin sheet

8. Ductility
Ability to be stretched into a thin wire

9. Chemical Properties

10. Chemical Properties:
Properties that can not be observed without changing the substance into a new substance.
You don’t know that a substance has that property until the chemical change is observed.
Matter that has the ability to change into new matter that has different properties.

11. Chemical Properties include:
Flammability
Toxicity
pH – acid or base
Reactivity to water
Reactivity to oxygen
Reactivity to an acid
Explosivity
Corrosiveness

12. Flammability
Ability to burn

13. Toxicity
Ability to poison

14. pH
Acid or base

15. Reactivity to Water

16. Reactivity to Oxygen

17. Reactivity to an Acid

18. Corrosiveness
Gradual wearing away of metal due to a chemical reaction in which a metal element is changed into a metallic compound

19. Explosivity
The property of being explosive which is to burst or shatter violently and noisily as a result of rapid combustion, excessive internal pressure, or other process.
