Answer 1

The correct response is:

flammability: chemical property
boiling point: physical property
flammability: chemical property boiling point: physical property

Flammability is a chemical property because it describes the ability of a substance to undergo combustion, resulting in a chemical change. Boiling point is a physical property because it describes a change in the state of matter (from liquid to gas) without altering the chemical composition of the substance.
