As melting of ice only changes its state and not its identity.

And, a property that changes chemical composition of a substance is known as chemical property.

For example, precipitation, reactivity, toxicity etc are chemical property.

Therefore, we can conclude that the statement a characteristic of a substance that can be observed or measured  without changing the identity of the substance is a physical property, is true.
