Question

11 classify the following physical properties of matter as either extensive or intensive. drag & drop the answer extensive property intensive property color density enthalpy luster mass volume

Explanation:

• Extensive Property: Depends on the amount of matter. Mass is the amount of matter in an object, volume is the amount of space matter occupies, and enthalpy (\(H = U+ pV\), where \(U\) is internal energy, \(p\) is pressure, and \(V\) is volume) depends on the amount of substance (since \(V\) and \(U\) can depend on the amount of matter).
• Intensive Property: Does not depend on the amount of matter. Color is a characteristic that does not change with the amount of a pure substance. Density (\(

ho=\frac{m}{V}\), for a pure substance, the ratio of mass to volume is constant regardless of the sample size). Luster (the way a substance reflects light) is a characteristic of the type of substance, not its amount.

Answer:

• Extensive Property: Enthalpy, Mass, Volume
• Intensive Property: Color, Density, Luster
