How does a physical property such as mass or texture change without causing a change in the substance?
how can a physical property, such as mass or texture, change without causing a change in the substance? texture can change without causing a change in the substance because even if you make some changes it’s still the same.
What is a chemical property of a raft?
In building a raft, it must be malleable and strong enough to withstand the pressure of the fast-moving stream of water and the rocks along the river. It must have a density that is less than the water in order to stay afloat. More importantly, it must have materials that are insoluble and impenetrable to water.
How is a change different from a property?
All substances have distinct physical and chemical properties, and may undergo physical or chemical changes. Physical properties, such as hardness and boiling point, and physical changes, such as melting or freezing, do not involve a change in the composition of matter.
When you observe a physical property the substance?
Physical properties are characteristics that can be observed without changing the identity of the substance. Examples are shape, mass, color, volume and texture. Other physical properties can be measured such as melting point, boiling point, strength, hardness and magnetism.
How can you change a physical property without changing the substance?
Describe how a physical property, such as mass or texture, can change without causing a change in the substance. You can change a physical property like mass, by cutting an object. It is still the same substance, it just a different mass. You can also change the texture by sanding a piece of wood.
What are the two types of changes in a substance?
There are two kinds of changes: physical and chemical. Physical properties can change without changing the substance, while chemical properties do change the substance.
What is the difference between physical properties and chemical properties?
Physical properties can change without changing the substance, while chemical properties do change the substance. Physical properties, like you said mass or texture, can change without changing the substance because the properties don’t change the fundamental state of the subject; it doesn’t change anything like atoms or molecules.
What is an example of a physical change?
For example, when you freeze water to make ice, it’s a physical change. The water goes from a liquid state to a solid state. But, the substance isn’t changed: the compound is still H2O whether it’s water or ice.
