    Study Notes

    Intensive Properties

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

    Extensive Properties

    • Depend on the quantity of matter in a sample.
    • Cannot be used for substance identification.
    • Key examples include mass, volume, length, temperature, moles, energy, and width.

    Key Definitions

    • Mass: Quantity of matter in an object; extensive property.
    • Volume: Space occupied by an object; extensive property.
    • Length: Measurement of distance; extensive property.
    • Density: Mass per unit volume; calculated by dividing mass by volume; intensive property.
    • Melting Point: Temperature at which a solid turns into a liquid; intensive property.
    • Color: Visual description of an object; intensive property.
    • Boiling Point of Water: Transition temperature from liquid to gas; intensive property.
    • Temperature: Average kinetic energy of particles in matter; extensive property.
    • Ductility: Ability to be drawn into wires; intensive property.
    • Malleability: Ability to be shaped into thin sheets; intensive property.
    • Odor: Chemical property activating the sense of smell; intensive property.
    • Width: Measurement of an object's width; extensive property.
    • Circumference of a Soccer Ball: Example of an extensive property.
    • Gold Density: 19 g/cm³, an example of an intensive property.
    • Moles of a Substance: Quantity measurement; extensive property.
    • Energy: Related to the work done or heat in a substance; extensive property.
    • Calcium Solubility: Insensitivity in water; described as an intensive property.
