Question 15 • SVHS Chemistry 1 $FA

Which statement describes a physical property of copper?

Answer
A
It reacts with strong acids.
B
It can be reshaped by a force.
C
It ignites at high temperatures.
D
It can combine with oxygen.

Explanation

A physical property can be observed without changing a substance into a different substance. Copper can be reshaped by a force, which describes its malleability and does not change its chemical identity. Reacting with acids, igniting, and combining with oxygen are chemical properties because they involve chemical changes.
