That is because each of those properties is a measurable characteristic of matter, often specific to that material. It describes "stuff"...physical matter.

let me give u a example what is yellow, it a gas that solidify a neg 101 c? if u answer chlorine u are correct. If there was no chemical sensor, the properties is the only way that u can tell the different elements apart. assuming it a element not a compounds. physical properties are anything that u can see, feel and taste (acids taste sour). back to the chlorine. Lets just say u are a front line soldier in WWI, u see this yellow gas coming out of this can that was fired from an enemy cannon. Since you seen this u void walking into it and getting kill.

Since these are the inherent properties they are referred to as the physical properties of the material..

These things help separate some materials from others. It gives uniqueness to these materials that set them apart from others.
