Density is an intensive property because it does not depend on the amount of matter present. If you have 2 grams of copper and 2000 grams of copper, they are going to have the same density. This cannot be said for extensive properties such as volume: 2 grams of copper will not have the same volume as 2000 grams of copper.

Density is an intensive property.
Intensive because it doesn't depend on the amount of material.
Density is an intensive property.
Intensive property is the classification of property that does not affect density. In science, there are ten intensive properties of a substance.
Density is an intensive property because it does not depend on the amount of the substance.
No. Density is an intensive property.
Intensive, it sinks because of its density-which is intensive.
Yes, the density is a characteristic property. Density is a physical property, an intensive property, independent on the amount of material.
Density is an intensive property because the size of the sample does not matter.
Density is an intrinsic property, not an extensive property of matter. This is because it DOES NOT depend on the size of the sample (amount). The density of a small piece of matter is the same as the density of a larger piece of that same matter.
The density, and valence of an element do not depend on the amount.
An intensive physical property does not depend on the size of the sample. An example of an intensive physical property is density. An extensive physical property does depend on the size of the sample, such as mass and volume.
