Answer
A
It is clear and colorless.
B
It has a density of about 1 g over mL .
C
It has a melting point of 0 times degree C .
D
It reacts with sodium metal.

Explanation

A chemical property describes how a substance reacts to form or change into other substances. Water reacts with sodium metal, so this is a chemical property. Being clear and colorless, having a density of about 1 g/mL, and melting at 0°C are physical properties because they can be observed or measured without changing water into a different substance.
