A Physical property is a property, quality or way that the object is. A physical property can always be measured without changing or making different the object chemically or in a way that would effect its chemical or atomic stucture. There are two types of physical properties; intensive and extensive.

- Intensive physical properties do not change when you have more or less of the thing. For example: hardness, softness or speed (quickness)

- Extensive physical properties change when you have more or less of the thing. For example volume, total mass, and weight
