Physical and Chemical Smore
By Hannah Francis period 1
Physical property
Characteristics that describe an object volume,hardness,color,luster,density,solubility,odor,temperature at which solids melt and liquids boil, taste
- color
- size
- shape
Chemical property
A characteristic that is observed when a substance interacts with another substance (ability to rust ability to burn,ability to tarnish).
These are properties that can't be determined just by looking at or touching a substance.
- ability to burn
- ability to tarnish
- ability to rust
Physical change
A change that alters the form or cutting appearance of a material but does not change. The material into another substance.
- cutting paper
- melting plastic
- freezing ice
Chemical change
(Chemical Reaction) a change in matter that produces a substance with properties different from the original substance.
- an explosion
- a nail rusting
- food digesting in my stomach
5 indicators of Chemical change
- color change
- change in temperature
- gas produced (not boiling)
- 2 liquids react to make a solid
- change in properties ( density,smell,taste,texture,melting points,boiling points,hardness,etc.)
