Study Notes

Physical Properties

  • Physical properties describe a substance's appearance without changing its composition
  • Qualitative properties describe qualities like color, odor, and texture
  • Quantitative properties describe measurable attributes like height, mass, and temperature
  • Examples of qualitative properties include luster, opacity, and malleability
  • Examples of quantitative properties include mass, temperature, and density

Physical Changes

  • A physical change alters a substance's form but not its composition
  • Examples include changes in state (solid, liquid, gas), dissolving, and cutting or bending
  • No new substances are formed during a physical change
  • Melting, freezing, boiling, and dissolving are examples of physical changes

Qualitative Properties

  • Qualitative properties are characteristics that can't be measured numerically
  • These properties are observed through the senses (sight, smell, touch, etc.)
  • Color, odor, texture, luster, and solubility are examples of qualitative properties

Quantitative Properties

  • Quantitative properties are numerical measurements of a substance
  • These properties involve tools and measurements to determine a value
  • Examples include mass, density, temperature, and volume
