Answer: Heat of combustion

Explanation: Color is a physical property but however, color change can occur due to a chemical reaction. Example change in oxidation state of Fe(ii) to Fe(iii) from green to greenish brown.

2Fe²+ + 3O2 = 2Fe2O3

(Green) (Brown)

Compressibility is a physical property usually attributed to liquid, solid and gases. It is the change in volume or shape of matter and sometimes state of matter in gases.

Heat of combustion however is a chemical property because it is the heat change or given off as energy when an atom, molecule or compound is reacted with oxygen. Example when an organic substance undergoes combustion reaction with oxygen, it produces CO2, H2O and heat.

C6H12O6 + 6O2 = 6CO2 + 6H2O + Heat

(Oxidation reaction of glucose during respiration).

Malleability is a physical property because it is visible without altering the chemical composition of the material. For a material to be malleable, it means it can be hammered into thin sheet, rolled or capable of been flexible. Malleability is a unique physical property attributed to metals.

Chemical changes only happen when the object changes form. Color is a physical property because you're not changing the object that you have, compressibility is also a physical property because you still have the same substance before and sfter, malleability again is another physical. Heat of combustion is physical, when you burn things it changes the substance. :)

A. Match the term with its definition. (1 point)

Taking into account the definition of wavelength, frecuency and propagation speed:

Frequency: The number of waves passing a point in 1 second.
Wavelength: The distance between two adjacent wave peaks.
Velocity: The direction and speed at which a wave is traveling.

The equation that illustrates the relationship between wave velocity, frequency, and wavelength is v = f×λ.

<h3>Wavelength</h3>

Wavelength is the minimum distance between two successive points on the wave that are in the same state of vibration. It is expressed in units of length (m).

<h3>Frequency</h3>

On the other side, frequency is the number of vibrations that occur in a unit of time. Its unit is s⁻¹ or hertz (Hz).

<h3>Propagation speed or velocity</h3>

Finally, the propagation speed is the speed with which the wave propagates in the medium, that is, it is the magnitude that measures the speed at which the wave disturbance propagates along its displacement.

The propagation speed relate the wavelength (λ) and the frequency (f) inversely proportional using the following equation:

v = f×λ

All electromagnetic waves propagate in a vacuum at a constant speed of 2,998 x 10⁸ m / s, the speed of light.

Therefore, the previous expression establishes an inversely proportional relationship between the frequency and the wavelength: The higher the frequency, the lower the wavelength and when the frequency is lower, the greater the wavelength.

<h3>Summary</h3>

In summary, the definition of frequency, wavelength and velocity are:
