Homonym: properties (Attributes)
Properties are characteristics or attributes that describe an object or substance. They can include physical traits like color, shape, size, and texture, as well as chemical traits such as reactivity and pH level. Understanding these properties helps scientists and researchers identify and classify materials.
In addition to physical and chemical properties, there are also other types, such as thermal properties, which describe how a material responds to heat, and electrical properties, which indicate how well a material conducts electricity. These properties are essential in fields like engineering, chemistry, and materials science for developing new products and technologies.
