Question

Why do you think you need to know the physical and chemical properties of organic compound ?

Answer 1

Every organic compound has a unique density. For example, the density of ethanol, a type of alcohol, is 0.789g/ml but the density of vinegar, an acetic acid, is 1.05g/ml. As we can see, each organic compound has its own unique density. Thus, this physical property is quite useful when identifying organic compounds.

Answer 2

Explanation:

A physical property is a characteristic of matter that is not associated with a change in its chemical composition. Familiar examples of physical properties include density, color, hardness, melting and boiling points, and electrical conductivity.
