The properties that would be classified as chemical properties only from the list provided are:
A. flammability
Flammability is a chemical property because it describes a substance's ability to undergo a chemical change or reaction when exposed to fire or heat.
The other options involve physical properties:
- B. color change and odor: While aspects like color change can indicate a chemical reaction, they are not exclusive to chemical properties as they can also occur due to physical changes.
- C. melting point and boiling point: These are physical properties as they describe the state changes of a substance without altering its chemical composition.
- D. density, temperature change, and solubility: All of these are physical properties as well.
So the correct answer is **A. flammability**.
