A chemical property is a property of a substance that is observed when a substance undergoes a chemical change. A chemical change is a type of change that also changes the identity of a substance due to the breakage and formation of new chemical bonds. Chemical properties help in identifying and characterizing different substances.
With chemical properties the chemical identity of the substance is changed, this is not the case with physical properties. With chemical properties the structure of the material changes, while the structure does not change in the case of physical properties. A chemical reaction occurs before a chemical property becomes evident, while no chemical reaction is needed for a physical property to become visible. Chemical properties, unlike physical properties, can be used to predict how substances will react. Table comparing physical and chemical properties
