Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The chemical property of copper among melting point, density, good conductor of electricity and turns black on heating is to be identified.
Concept introduction:
Physical properties are the properties of a pure substance in which there is no change in the composition of that substance. Chemical properties of a substance are those properties in which the composition of the substance is changed and a new substance is formed.
