Class variables are member variables of a class but are declared as static. Instance variables are member variables of class which are not declared as static. Instance variables belong to object only where as class variables are shared by all the objects of the corresponding class.

In addtion to the above:

Class variables are one per class where as instance variables are one per instance of the class (object).

Class variables are static variables.

Class variables can be accessed before creating any instance (object) of the class.

Class variables cannot be declared inside instance methods.

class variables are the variables declared in a class itself. The instance variables are the variables asociated with the object. When we calling a function by passing an object then the variables associated with the object is accesible ,these variables are called as instance variable in that function(ie variables at that Perticular Instance)

Class variables belongs to a Class
where as an instance variable belongs to an Object.

 A class variable is shared by all the objects of the class.
 where as every object contain their own instance variable.
