Which of the following is an example of a physical property? Transparency Reactivity with acid Ability to rust Ability to burn

@kittiwitti1

OpenStudy (kittiwitti1):

I was trying to comment on your other question =_=

NvidiaIntely (nvidiaintely):

Oh let me check it?

Chemical Properties are when it reacts so B and C would be out since B is a reaction and C is also a reaction one example of rust is when iron is met with water it has a reaction and rusts....

OpenStudy (will.h):

B and D seem more chemistry

OpenStudy (will.h):

I'd say A

OpenStudy (kittiwitti1):

What do you think? @NvidiaIntely

NvidiaIntely (nvidiaintely):

@mathmale, can you explain this is FULL detail? I am STUMPED on this.

OpenStudy (kittiwitti1):

Chemical properties usually involve two elements reacting

NvidiaIntely (nvidiaintely):

Okay got that :/

OpenStudy (kittiwitti1):

So yeah... would B work then?

NvidiaIntely (nvidiaintely):

I guess so. idk really.

OpenStudy (kittiwitti1):

Chemical properties can be listed as "ability to" Example: \(flammability\): ability to burn

NvidiaIntely (nvidiaintely):

Wait wait, its asking for a "physical property" not a "Chemical property".

OpenStudy (kittiwitti1):

B does NOT work. It is the reactivity to acid, which is a chemical property. "chemical properties usually involve two elements reacting" Acids contain certain elements that will react with certain materials, so it's a chemical property.

OpenStudy (kittiwitti1):

Well, we're listing what doesn't work first :p

NvidiaIntely (nvidiaintely):

Ok lol

OpenStudy (kittiwitti1):

So, B is confirmed NO. What about C and D?

NvidiaIntely (nvidiaintely):

Thos a re Chemical properties, so NO.

OpenStudy (kittiwitti1):

Yes! that you got it right I mean

NvidiaIntely (nvidiaintely):

So its A! Thanks Kitti!

OpenStudy (kittiwitti1):

np :D
