Intensive properties are independent from the mass of an object: density, hardness, melting point.

Intensive
No definitely not.Because a characteristic property should not change.It is used to identify a substance.Mass and Volume are not characteristic properties whereas Density is a characteristic property of the substance .
Every substance has certain properties that show things about them, such as odor, taste, malleability, hardness, color, state at room temperature, and melting/boiling point. If you know the color of a substance, it is far easier to determine what that substance is, and if you know the color and the boiling point, your choices are limited even further. Using the physical properties of a substance, you can identify the substance based off of its unique properties or combinations of properties.
These properties are specific for each substance.
boiling point --------- Boiling point is a specific characteristic of a substance or element; the mechanical strength, the viscosity, the electrical resistivity are more difficult to be used for a sure identification of a substance.
Examples: - flammability - resistance to corrosion - resistance to thermal degradation - oxidation - reduction - apptitude for polymerization - chemilumiscence etc.

Physical and chemical properties can be used to identify a substance or predict how it will behave.
It Helps identify and classify Substance
The physical properties of a pure substance can be used to identify it. A pure substance is an element or a compound, not a mixture.

Since characteristic properties for a given substance never change, they can be used to identify unknown matter.
The traditional ones are melting point and boiling point.
