Inductive Reasoning
No they do not change
The smallest particle of matter that retains the properties of the element of which it is a sample.
It is probable a carbonate.
A uniform mixture is : A sample of matter that has the same composition and properties throughout.
Inductive Reasoning
Melting point of the sample & Density of the sample
No they do not change
Chemical properties
All intrinsic properties will be the same regardless of sample size. Some examples would be density, color, temperature, chemical reactivity, etc.
Mass
chemical properties can be observed only when the substances in a sample of matter are changing into different substances
From a sample of a population, the properties of the population can be inferred.
The smallest particle of matter that retains the properties of the element of which it is a sample.
A disturbed sample is one in which the structure of the soil has been changed sufficiently that tests of structural properties of the soil will not be representative of in-situ conditions, and only properties of the soil grains (e.g., grain size distribution, Atterberg limits, and possibly the water content) can be accurately determined. An undisturbed sample is one where the condition of the soil in the sample is close enough to the conditions of the soil in-situ to allow tests of structural properties of the soil to be used to approximate the properties of the soil in-situ.
Yes they wouldn't have the same composition but not properties!
This depends for intensive (not dependent of mass) and extensive (dependent of mass) properties.
