Question
identify the following as either chemical or physical
a yellow rock
physical change

chemical change
A physical property is a characteristic of a substance that can be observed or measured without changing the substance's chemical composition. Color is a physical property. A physical change involves a change in the form or state of a substance, but not its chemical composition. A chemical property relates to a substance's ability to undergo a chemical change. A chemical change results in the formation of new substances. Since "a yellow rock" is describing a characteristic (color) that can be observed without changing the rock's chemical makeup, it is a physical property.
