Answer:


\boxed {\sf Physical}

Step-by-step explanation:

There are two main kinds of properties: chemical and physical.

Chemical properties, like the name suggests, have to be observed by changing the chemical composition.

That leaves physical properties. They can be measured without any chemical composition changes.

Some examples include: color, odor, mass, density, and volume. All can be measured with just the senses or measuring tools and no composition alterations are needed.
