What are size dependent and size independent properties of matter?

Answer 1

hey....the size independent properties are....density, melting point, solubility, ability to attract a magnet, state of matter, color, and boiling point.

Answer 2

An increase in size can two significant effects on the organism: first greater size means a decrease in the ratio between surface area and mass (usually) so that heat loss across the skin decreases. Larger animals have a lower rate of metabolism by weight. Secondly is in height's effects on blood pressure differences. In a two meter human we have to adjust our heart rates to avoid orthostatic hypotension. The problem for a giraffe is even more dramatic.

Answer 3

As an object gets larger, the ratio of volume to surface area increases. This has a variety of consequences, such as increased retention of heat.

The force of gravity, which is too small even to detect on the atomic level, gradually becomes more significant as objects increase in size. On the largest sizes, such as planets and stars, gravity become overwhelmingly the most powerful force.

Quantum indeterminacy, such as the tendency of sub-atomic particles to act as if they are also waves, becomes much less significant, and harder to observe, as objects get larger.

Answer 4

I am so sorry, but I only can give you 3 examples:

• Mass
• Surface Area
• Gravitational Pull

I will, however, give you 3 examples of independent properties of matter as well:

• Density
• State of Matter
• Color

Answer 5

Size dependent properties are properties of matter that can change within scale. This property depends on the quantity of matter the object has. These properties cannot be by themselves to characterize a type of matter. An example is "water has a mass of 4 kilograms". Another example is "the feathers weigh one pound". Size independent properties are more specific. They can be found when using the formula density equals mass divided by volume. An example is "one feather weighs one gram". Size independent properties are more important than size dependent properties.

Answer 6

Size dependent properties are physical properties that change when the size of an object changes. Some examples of size dependent properties of matter are length, width, height, volume, and mass.

Answer 7

Density, volume
