  • Which of the following is an intensive property of a substance: density, volume, length, or mass?
    Density is an intensive property; volume, length, and mass are extensive properties.
  • Which of these is an example of investigating an intensive property?
    Measuring the density of a substance is an example of investigating an intensive property.
  • Which term refers to a property that depends only on the amount of a substance?
    Extensive property refers to a property that depends on the amount of a substance.
  • Which statement describes an intensive property of matter?
    An intensive property does not depend on the amount of matter present and is inherent to the substance.
  • Which of these is an extensive property of a substance?
    Mass is an extensive property of a substance.
  • Which of the following is an extensive physical property of matter?
    Volume is an extensive physical property of matter.
  • Which is an intensive property of a substance?
    Color is an intensive property of a substance.
  • What is the difference between intensive and extensive properties?
    Intensive properties do not depend on the amount of substance, while extensive properties do.
  • Which of the following is an intensive property of a sample of neon gas?
    Density is an intensive property of a sample of neon gas.

  • Which procedure could a student use to examine an intensive property of a rectangular block of wood?
    A student could measure the density of the block to examine an intensive property.
  • Is density intensive or extensive?
    Density is an intensive property.
  • Classify each property as intensive or extensive.
    Intensive: color, density, hardness, melting point; Extensive: mass, volume, length, energy.
  • Is the concentration of oxygen in the air considered an intensive or extensive property, and why?
    The concentration of oxygen in the air is considered an intensive property because it does not depend on the amount of air present; it is inherent to the substance regardless of quantity.
