Extensive and Intensive Properties Final

This document defines and provides examples of extensive and intensive properties of matter. Extensive properties depend on amount and can change with sample size, like mass, volume, and energy. Intensive properties do not depend on amount and identify a sample, like boiling point, color, luster, odor, ductility, malleability, hardness, and density. Density is defined as mass per unit volume and is considered an intensive property because its value does not change based on amount.

PROPERTIES OF MATTER

Extensive and Intensive


| Nacional | Villaret |
EXTENSIVE PROPERTY
Depends on the amount of
matter being measured
Can change according to
sample size or condition
MASS
and
WEIGHT
Mass- a fundamental
measure of the amount of
matter in the object.
Weight- the force of gravity
on the object and may be
defined as the mass times the
acceleration of gravity
VOLUME
Volume- the amount of
space that a substance or
object occupies
SIZE
and
LENGTH
Size- a thing's overall
dimensions or magnitude
Length- the most extended
dimension of an object
ENERGY
Energy- the property that
must be transferred to an
object in order to perform
work on or to heat the
object
INTENSIVE PROPERTY
Does not depend on
the amount of the
substance present.
Can be used to identify
a sample because
these characteristics do
not change according
to conditions.
BOILING
and
MELTING
POINT
Boiling Point- the temperature at
which the vapor pressure of the
liquid equals the pressure
surrounding the liquid and the
liquid changes into a vapor
Melting Point- the temperature
at which the solid melts to
become a liquid
COLOR
Color- the property
possessed by an object of
producing different
sensations on the eye as a
result of the way the object
reflects or emits light
LUSTER
Luster- a gentle sheen or
soft glow, especially that of
a partly reflective surface
ODOR
Odor- a lingering quality,
impression, or feeling
attaching to something
DUCTILITY
Ductility- a solid material's
ability to deform under
tensile stress
MALLEABILITY
Malleability- ability to be
hammered or pressed
permanently out of shape
without breaking or cracking.
HARDNESS
Hardness- a measure of how
resistant solid matter is to
various kinds of permanent
shape change when a
compressive force is applied
DENSITY
defined as mass per unit volume.
Each chemical compound has a
certain constant density regardless of
amount present, making density an
intensive property.
Whether 2 kilograms or 2 grams of a
substance is present, if the mass is
divided by volume present, the result is
the same value
