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:

    Modern tourist guides have helped raised tourist expectations. And they have provided the natives—from Kaiser Wilhelm down to the villagers of Chichacestenango—with a detailed and itemized list of what is expected of them and when. These are the up-to- date scripts for actors on the tourists’ stage.
    Daniel J. Boorstin (b. 1914)

    Do your children view themselves as successes or failures? Are they being encouraged to be inquisitive or passive? Are they afraid to challenge authority and to question assumptions? Do they feel comfortable adapting to change? Are they easily discouraged if they cannot arrive at a solution to a problem? The answers to those questions will give you a better appraisal of their education than any list of courses, grades, or test scores.
    Lawrence Kutner (20th century)

    A drop of water has the properties of the sea, but cannot exhibit a storm. There is beauty of a concert, as well as of a flute; strength of a host, as well as of a hero.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
