Elizabeth was studying physical and chemical properties and created the table below to help her. Which property and example does she have correct?


Type of Property
Example
physical
combustibility
chemical
melting point
physical
reactivity
chemical
density
(1 point)
Melting point is a physical property. All other properties and examples in her table are correct.
Melting point and density are both physical properties. All other properties and examples in her table are correct.
• None of the properties and examples in her table are correct.
Density is a physical property. All other properties and examples in her table are correct.

1 answer

The correct statement about Elizabeth's table is: Melting point and density are both physical properties. All other properties and examples in her table are correct.

  • Melting point is indeed a physical property.
  • Density is also a physical property.
  • Combustibility is a chemical property, not physical.
  • Reactivity is also a chemical property, not physical.

Therefore, the correct option regarding the accuracy of her table is that both melting point and density are correctly classified as physical properties, while the classifications for combustibility and reactivity are incorrect.
