Extensive property

Volume is an extensive property.
Is absorption an intensive or extensive property?
extensive propert
Is mass an extensive physical property?
Mass is not an intensive property, it is an extensive property, i.e. the mass of a system made of two parts A and B is equal to the mass of A plus the mass of B. An intensive property (e.g. pressure or temperature) is one in which the value of the property for the entire system is equal to the value of the property for any of the subsystems. So, you probably wanted to ask why mass is an extensive property. This is a consequence of the law of gravity and of the fact that forces add up to make a resultant force. The total gravitational force upon a body X by two other bodies A and B is the sum of the force exerted by A and the force exerted by B. It's as if we have a combined body with the mass of A plus the mass of B, and thus mass is extensive.
Is area properties intensive or extensive?
Area is an extensive property.
Is color an extensive property?
Generally no. There are some cases where color is due to the structure of the object and not a pigment, and in those it would properly be considered an extensive property. (An example of color as an extensive property would be the shifting colors seen on a thin film of oil: the color depends on the thickness of the film, not on any intrinsic property of the oil itself.)

I consider that the term "use" for an extensive property is not adequate.
Is mass extensive or intensive physical property?
Mass is an extensive physical property.
Is surface tension is extensive property?
No. Unit of surface tension is energy per area. An extensive property divided by an extensive property becomes intensive.
Is weight a intensive or extensive property?
Extensive
