Questions and Answers

What is an intensive property?

  • A property determined by the amount of matter
  • A property that cannot be used to identify a substance
  • A property that depends on the type of matter in a sample (correct)
  • The quantity of matter in a body
  • What is an extensive property?

  • A property that varies with the amount of matter (correct)
  • A property that describes the chemical identity
  • A property independent of the amount of matter
  • A property used to identify a substance

    Study Notes

    Intensive Properties

    • Depend on the type of matter within a sample, not on the amount present.
    • Useful for identifying substances.
    • Examples include density, melting point, color, boiling point of water, ductility, malleability, and odor.

    Extensive Properties

    • Depend on the specific sample or quantity of matter.
    • Not useful for identifying substances.
    • Examples include mass, volume, length, temperature, and width.

    Key Examples of Intensive Properties

    • Density: Defined as mass per unit volume; calculated by dividing mass by volume.
    • Melting Point: The specific temperature at which a solid transitions to a liquid; characteristic of a substance.
    • Color: Descriptive physical property that provides visual information about an object.
    • Boiling Point of Water: The temperature at which water changes from liquid to gas; a specific characteristic.
    • Ductility: The ability of a substance to be drawn into wires; indicates malleability.
    • Malleability: The capacity of a substance to be rolled or hammered into thin sheets.
    • Odor: Related to the ability of a substance to stimulate the sense of smell.

    Key Examples of Extensive Properties

    • Mass: Total quantity of matter within an object, irrespective of its forces or volume.
    • Volume: Measurement of space occupied by an object; calculated as length x width x height.
    • Length: A quantitative measure; does not help in identifying materials.
    • Temperature: Reflects the average kinetic energy of particles in matter; sometimes depends on the amount of substance.
    • Width: Measures how wide something is; similar to length, not helpful for identification.
