Mass is an extensive (not an intensive) property, because it is proportional to the amount of material in the system.

Which physical property can be determined by finding the ratio of mass to volume?

mass and volume


Is temperature an extensive or intensive property?

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.


Is density related to force?

no it isnt, its an intensive property and show the mass in unit volume!


What property is desinty?

Density is an intensive physical property. It is the mass per unit of volume. The formula is Density = mass/volume. So if an object has a mass of 28g and a volume of 7cm3, the density would be 28g/7cm3 = 4g/cm3.


What is the Density of shampoo?

2 g/mL


Why does density remain the same regardless of sample size unlike mass or volume?

Density is an intensive property - not dependent on the mass.


What is the relationship between the volume and the ratio of mass to volume?

Depending on how you interpret the question, the relationship between those two properties either nonexistent or trivial. Volume is an extrinsic property and density (ratio of mass to volume) is an intrinsic property; there's no relation between them other than IF you know any two of the three properties (mass, volume, density) you can calculate the missing one.


Does gas is intensive property?

Gas is NOT a property but matter.As such it has bothintensive (eg. temperature, density) andextensive properties (like mass, volume)


What is the definition of density?

Density is a property of matter representing the mass per unit volume. :)


What kind of property is the density of an object?

The density is the ratio between the mass and the volume. ---- It's a physical property.


Is potential energy intensive or extensive property?

an intensive property is the one that is independent from the mass of number of particles in a system while an extensive proeprty depends on them. Energy (e.g. heat) is a property that depend on the mass or the number of particles in a system. In other words, energy is an extensive property.


What will happen to the mass volume and density if you chop the wooden block in half?

The volume will be reduced to a half of its original value. If the mass is (approximately) evenly distributed throughout the wooden block then the mass will also reduce to a half of its original value and the density will not change.
