Question

Which of the following is a physical property? A. Flammability B. Heat of combustion C. Solubility D.Toxicity

Answer 1

I think it would be solubility but I’m not sure

Answer 2

Answer: Option (C) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A property that does not cause any difference in the chemical composition of the atom is known as a physical property.

For example, boiling point, mass, density, melting point, solubility etc are physical properties.

On the other hand, a property that that cause difference in the chemical composition of a substance is known as a chemical property.

For example, combustion, toxicity, flammability etc are chemical properties.

Therefore, we can conclude that out of the given options solubility is a physical property.
