List of Properties

Physical properties- Properties that do not change the chemical nature of matter.


The physical properties of an object are traditionally defined by Classical mechanics. The physical properties of an object may include, but are not limited to:

  • absorption (physical)
  • Absorption (electromagnetic)
  • albedo
  • angular momentum
  • area
  • brittleness
  • boiling point
  • capacitance
  • color
  • concentration
  • density
  • dielectric
  • ductility
  • distribution
  • efficacy
  • elasticity
  • electric charge
  • electrical conductivity
  • electrical impedance
  • electric field
  • electric potential
  • emission

Famous quotes containing the words list of, list and/or properties:

    I made a list of things I have
    to remember and a list
    of things I want to forget,
    but I see they are the same list.
    Linda Pastan (b. 1932)

    I am opposed to writing about the private lives of living authors and psychoanalyzing them while they are alive. Criticism is getting all mixed up with a combination of the Junior F.B.I.- men, discards from Freud and Jung and a sort of Columnist peep- hole and missing laundry list school.... Every young English professor sees gold in them dirty sheets now. Imagine what they can do with the soiled sheets of four legal beds by the same writer and you can see why their tongues are slavering.
    Ernest Hemingway (1899–1961)

    The reason why men enter into society, is the preservation of their property; and the end why they choose and authorize a legislative, is, that there may be laws made, and rules set, as guards and fences to the properties of all the members of the society: to limit the power, and moderate the dominion, of every part and member of the society.
    John Locke (1632–1704)
