Matter can be described and identified by physical and chemical properties. Physical
properties (Chemicals, properties; substances; textures) have to do with appearance. You can
observe many physical properties with your senses and by measuring the length, width ( width,
density; height; property) , height, mass and density of a substance. Physical (Chemical, matter,
described, physical) properties include color, shape, smell, texture, taste and size. The state of
matter (whether it's a solid, liquid (water, molecule, liquid, atom) , or gas) and the temperature,
(time, temperature, design, cylinder) at which the substance boils, melts or freezes are also
physical properties. Magnetic properties are physical properties as well.
Chemical ( Chemical, Physical, Substances, Gaseus) properties, on the other hand, have
more to do with the atomic or molecular composition of matter. Chemical properties deal with
how substances react with other substances (substances, Properties, physicals, degrees ) such as
water, air or fire.
A physical change has occurred when a substance changes color, size, shape, temperature
or state. A chemical (temperature, physical, chemical, color) change has occurred when a
substance has changed into something new or different ( similar, different, familiar, original) so
that the original substance is gone. Digestion and combustion are examples of chemical changes.
A chemical change takes place in a battery (battery, bulb, change, switch) to produce electricity
when you turn on a flashlight. Chemical changes are sometimes represented by a chemical
formula:
2H2 + O2 = 2H2O
This formula states that two hydrogen gas molecules react with one oxygen gas molecule to
produce two molecules of water.
