Thickness is generally considered an extensive property because it depends on the amount of material present. Extensive properties, such as mass and volume, change when the size or quantity of the material changes. However, thickness can also be viewed as an intensive property in certain contexts, such as when comparing materials of the same type regardless of their size. Ultimately, its classification may depend on the specific context in which it is being discussed.

What is a property that depends on the extent or size of a system?
An extensive property is a property that depends on the size or extent of a system. Examples include mass, volume, and energy.
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 radioactivity extensive or intensive?
is radioactivity extensive or intensive or chemical property
Is a malleability a extensive or a intensive property?
Malleability is an intensive 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.)
Is thickness an intensive or extensive property?
In the physical sciences, an intensive property (also called a bulk property, intensive quantity, or intensive variable), is a physical property of a system that does not depend on the system size or the amount of material in the system: it is scale invariant. Distance is an intensive property.
Is width an extensive property?
Width is an extensive property.
Is weight an extensive property or intensive property?

What is a property that depends on the extent or size of a system?
An extensive property is a property that depends on the size or extent of a system. Examples include mass, volume, and energy.
How are extensive property used?
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 volume an extensive or intensive property?
extensive
Is weight a intensive or extensive property?
Extensive
Is heat a intensive or extensive?
It is an extensive property.
Why weight is extensive property?
An extensive property is a property that changes when the size of the sample changes, weight would change.
