Answer:

A physical property is a characteristic that can be seen or measured without changing the material.

Step-by-step explanation:

So a chemical property of wood is its ability to burn. When it burns, it gets hot and changes to ash. A physical property is a characteristic that can be seen or measured without changing the material. Examples are odor, color, shape and texture.

The burning of wood is a chemical change as it leads to the formation of new substances like Carbon dioxide gas, water vapour, ash, etc. There are some substances that do not undergo complete combustion or do not react at all, these substances form the fire ash.
