Intensive properties and extensive properties are types of physical properties of matter. The terms intensive and extensive were first described by physical chemist and physicist Richard C. Tolman in 1917. Here's a look at what intensive and extensive properties are, examples of them, and how to tell them apart.
Intensive Properties
Intensive properties are bulk properties, which means they do not depend on the amount of matter that is present. Examples of intensive properties include:
Boiling point
Density
State of matter
Color
Melting point
Odor
Temperature
Refractive Index
Luster
Hardness
Ductility
Malleability
Intensive properties can be used to help identify a sample because these characteristics do not depend on the amount of sample, nor do they change according to conditions.
Extensive Properties
Extensive properties do depend on the amount of matter that is present. An extensive property is considered additive for subsystems. Examples of extensive properties include:
Volume
Mass
Size
Weight
Length
The ratio between two extensive properties is an intensive property. For example, mass and volume are extensive properties, but their ratio (density) is an intensive property of matter.
While extensive properties are great for describing a sample, they aren't very helpful identifying it because they can change according to sample size or conditions.
Way to Tell Intensive and Extensive Properties Apart
One easy way to tell whether a physical property is intensive or extensive is to take two identical samples of a substance and put them together. If this doubles the property (e.g., twice the mass, twice as long), it's an extensive property. If the property is unchanged by altering the sample size, it's an intensive property.
Answer:
2550 miles in 6 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
if you divide the miles and hours by each other you will get the m/ph (miles per hour)
3400 ÷ 8 = 425
now, that we know the plane travels 435 m/ph, then if we multiply it by 6 we will get the answer
425 × 6 = 2550
Answer:
Average cost per litre of diesel = rs 8.00
Step-by-step explanation:
Amount spent on diesel each year = rs 4000
Price of a litre of diesel in the first year = rs 7.50
Price of a litre of diesel in the second year = rs 8.00
Price of a litre of diesel in the third year = rs 8.50
Average cost per litre of diesel =
where n is the number of years.
Average cost per litre of diesel =
=
= 8
Average cost per litre of diesel is rs 8.00
So that he buys an average of 500 (i.e ) litres every year.
Answer:
i think the answer would be 35
Answer:
a) , n = 15 , X=3.4 , S=1.5 , α = .05
Formula :
p- value = 0.607(using calculator)
α = .05
p- value > α
So, we failed to reject null hypothesis
b) , n =75 , X=20.12 , S=2.1 , α = .10
Formula :
p- value = 0.000412(using calculator)
α = .1
p- value< α
So, we reject null hypothesis
(c) , n = 36, p-value = 0.061.
Assume α = .05
p-value = 0.061.
p- value > α
So, we failed to reject null hypothesis
