2. Physical property - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physical_property

   A cup might have the physical properties of mass, shape, color, temperature, etc., but these properties are supervenient on the underlying atomic structure, which may in turn be supervenient on an underlying quantum structure. Physical properties are contrasted with chemical properties which determine the way a material behaves in a chemical ...

8. State of matter - Wikipedia

   In this state, the distinction between liquid and gas disappears.

For example, supercritical carbon dioxide is used to extract caffeine in the manufacture of decaffeinated coffee. [3]
