Intensive Properties.
Properties that do not depend on the amount of the matter present. - Temperature.
- Pressure.
- Luster - How shiny a substance is.
- Malleability - The ability of a substance to be beaten into thin sheets.
- Ductility - The ability of a substance to be drawn into thin wires.
- Conductivity - The ability of a substance to allow the flow of energy or electricity.
- Hardness - How easily a substance can be scratched.
- Melting/Freezing Point - The temperature at which the solid and liquid phases of a substance are in equilibrium at atmospheric pressure.
- Boiling Point - The temperature at which the vapor pressure of a liquid is equal to the pressure on the liquid (generally atmospheric pressure).
- Density - The mass of a substance divided by its volume.
Extensive Properties.
Properties that do depend on the amount of matter present.
- Mass - A measurement of the amount of matter in a object (grams).
- Weight - A measurement of the gravitational force of attraction of the earth acting on an object.
- Volume - A measurement of the amount of space a substance occupies.
- Length.
