2 Physical Properties

3 Physical Properties Physical properties are used to observe or describe characteristics of matter. A substance has characteristic properties such as density, a boiling point, melting point & solubility. Physical properties involve things that can be measured without changing the chemical properties. Matter can undergo physical changes which affect only physical properties. Physical changes can involve changes in energy.

4 Physical Properties How does it look? … Red? Blue? Shiny? Reflective? Dull? What is it made of? … wood? Glass? How does it feel? … Pointy? Soft? Fuzzy? How does it smell? … Sweet? Rotten? Minty? A substance has characteristic properties such as density, a boiling point, melting point & solubility. Physical properties involve things that can be measured without changing the chemical properties. Matter can undergo physical changes which affect only physical properties.

39 Physical Properties Freezing Point
When a liquid turns into a solid it is called freezing. There is a temperature at which this happens called the freezing point.
