Should the shape of an object be considered a property of the material?

The object is still the same as it was before, so it should not be considered a property of the material. Properties include desity, mass, and reactivity. You would not be able to tell copper and iron apart based on their shape, only by color, density, and so on, so shape should not be considered a property of the material.

∙ 11y agoDepends on your definition of shape. Does an atom have shape? (and I don't think "circle" counts)
I've always been taught that solids had definite volume, definite shape; liquids have definite volume, indefinite shape; gases had indefinite, volume indefinite shape.

What three factors determine the amount of resistance of a material?
In solids, the resistance varies directly as the length of the object and inversely as the cross-sectional ares of the object and coefficient of resistance of the material which is an inherent property that each solid (metal or other) has.
Is density a property of an object or a property of the substance the object or a property of the substance the object is made of?
Density (or more properly Relative Density) is an elemental property. An object made from one or more elements will have a density related to the density of the elements.
What is the measure of the amount of object or material?
Mass measures the amount of matter in an object or material.
Is mass an intrinsic or extrinsic property?
The term Intrinsic denotes a characteristic or property of some thing or action which is essential and specific to that thing or action, and which is wholly independent of any other object, action or consequence. A characteristic which is not essential or inherent is extrinsic.
What property changes if the size of an object changes?
The property of the object would change "solid, liquid, or gas"

What do you see when you choose a material to make an object?
When we see a material an object of property.
What does the term ductility and thermal conductivity mean?
* Ductile: this is material which have ductility as a property.* Ductility: the property of a material to be deformed by tensile stress; this material can form easy wires.* Malleability: the property of a material to be deformed by compressive stress; this material can form easy foils.* Conductivity: the property of a material to conduct easy electricity or heat.* Shininess: the property of a material to have a luster, to easy reflect light.
What is another word for commodity?
article, asset, belonging, goods, material, object, produce, product, property, and specialty.

What is the property of a material that can be measured without changing the identity of the material?
what property of matter has a characteristic that can be measured or observed without changing it idenity
Is the size of an object a physical property or physical change?
An object's size is a physical property of the object.
What property is 4x5 equals 5x4?
Associative property

Density (or more properly Relative Density) is an elemental property. An object made from one or more elements will have a density related to the density of the elements.
