Understand the difference between intensive and extensive properties: Intensive properties do not depend on the amount of substance, while extensive properties do depend on the amount.
Recall that density is defined as mass divided by volume, \(\rho = \frac{m}{V}\).
Since both mass and volume are extensive properties, but their ratio (density) remains constant regardless of the sample size, density does not change with the amount of substance.
Recognize that density is a physical property because it can be measured without changing the chemical identity of the substance.
Conclude that density is an intensive physical property.
