Physical property- is an aspect of matter that can be observed or measured without touching changing it.

Chemical property- may only be observed by changing the chemical identity of a substance.

The difference would be that for physical property's you dont need to do anything to figure out what they are, but for chemical properties you need to change something to observe them.
