Expert Solution

(A) : Physical properties of a substance represent physical appearances like colour, hardness, mass, volume, physical state etc.

Hence the following properties are physical properties.

1.It is a shiny, silvery white metal.

2.It has a mass of 26.98 g.

During a chemical reaction, new product(s) is/are formed followed by change

in properties, temperature etc. Hence the following properties are chemical properties as new products are formed.

1.In moist air it combines with oxygen to form aluminum oxide.

2.It reacts with chlorine to form aluminum chloride

(B) : The physical properties of wood are

1.It has a mass of 2.3 g.

2.It is rough to touch.

3.It is hard.
