A chemical substance (also called a pure substance) may well be defined as any material with a definite chemical composition in an introductory general chemistry textbook.According to this definition a chemical substance can either be a pure chemical element or a pure chemical compound.But, there are exceptions to this definition; a pure substance can also be defined as a form of matter that has both definite composition and distinct properties. common example of a chemical substance is pure water; it has the same properties and the same ratio of hydrogen to oxygen whether it is isolated from a river or made in a laboratory.
