  • Physical Properties - are characteristics of an individual that can be determined without changing the position of the substance
  • Chemical Properties desciribe how the composition of a substance changes or does not change when it interacts with other substances or energy forms
  • COLOR - the property possessed by an object of producing different sensations on the eye, as a result, the way the object reflects or emits light.
  • ODOR - a distinctive smell, especially an unpleasant one.
  • LUSTER - a glow of reflected light.
  • MALLEABILITY - is the ability of a substance, usually a metal, to be deformed or molded into a different shape
  • DUCTILITY - is a crucial property that describes the ability of a material to be stretched, pulled, or drawn into a thinwire or thread without breaking
  • CONDUCTIVITY - is a measure of a solution's ability toconduct electricity
  • HARDNESS - is the ability of a material to resist deformation.
  • MELTING AND FREEZING POINT - is defined as the temperature above which, the substance is liquid and below which, it is solid
  • BOILING POINT - is the temperature at which boiling occurs for a specific liquid.
  • DENSITY - how much space an object or substance takes up(its volume) in relation to the amount of matter in that object or substance (its mass)
  • Intensive - these are properties that do not depend on the amount of matter present
  • Extensive - these are properties that do depend on the amount of matter present
  • Density is expressed in grams per cubic centimeter
