1. Ag (silver) tarnishes. Is this a physical or chemical property?

2. An apple is cut. Is this a physical or chemical property?

Asked by shim

Answer (3)

Ag tarnishing is a chemical change.(because the chemical composition of the silver is changing into a different one.). Apple being cut is a physical change because the chemical composition of the apple remains the same, but the apple itself changes to a smaller physical state.

Tarnishing of silver is a** chemical property** while an apple being cut is a physical property.

What are physical properties?
Any property which describes the state of a physical system is called as a **physical property.**Changes in physical properties are used to describe changes between the states. They are often related to as observable properties.
Physical property which can be quantified is a** physical quantity**. These are also classified further with respect to their directionality.** Isotropic properties **do not change with direction of observation while **anisotropic properties **change with direction of observation.
Physical properties are differentiated from chemical properties by the way they determine how a substance behaves in a chemical reaction.

Tarnishing of silver is a chemical property because it involves a change in the substance's chemical composition. Cutting an apple is a physical property since it only changes the apple's physical form without altering its chemical identity.
