Concept explainers
Interpretation: The following Intensive property& Extensive properties should be differentiating among themselves with proper explanation.
Concept Interaction:
Intensive property:
An intensive property is a bulk property in which a physical property of system does not depends on the system size or the amount of material in the system.
Example:
Density is an example of intensive property.
Extensive properties:
Extensive properties are not dependant only on the amount of material in a system.
For example: the amount of heat required melting ice at constant temperature and pressure is an extensive property. The amount of heat required to melt one ice cube would be much less than the amount of heat required to melt an iceberg ,so its depends on the quantity.
Examples:
Mass and volume, amount of substance Energy Entropy enthalpy are extensive properties.

- Which of the following are elements, and which are compounds? a NaOH; b BaCl2; c He; d Ag; e Fe2O3.arrow_forwardWhich question would you ask yourself, to determine if a property is extensive or intensive? [ Select] [ Select] Classify temp Is the property dependent on amount? Is the property of a pure substance? Is the property related to chemical change? Is the property dependent on whether the sample is gas, liquid or solid?arrow_forwardTwo samples of solids have similar reactivity with acids and similar densities. Their masses and volumes, however, are not at all possible that these are the same substance? No, it is not possible because they have different extensive properties. No, it is not possible because they have different intensi properties. Yes, it is possible because they have similar intensive properties. Yes, it is possible because they have similar extensive properties. Nextarrow_forward
- Propane gas (C3H8), has a boiling point of -42.0oC and ignites in the presence of oxygen. Do these represent physical or chemical properties? Both are chemical properties. Both are physical properties. The first is a chemical property and the second is a physical property. The first is a physical property and the second is a chemical property. It can not be determined from what is provided.arrow_forwardExplain the difference between intensive and extensive properties.arrow_forward2. Are the following chemical (C) or physical changes (P)?

- At what temperature would 250 mL of water boil? 1000 mL? Is the boiling point an intensive or extensive property? Explain.arrow_forwardPure helium gas is used in many industries in its liquid form as a refrigerant that allows for the liquefaction of many gases (including nitrogen and oxygen). It is also the gas of choice used when filling party balloons. Which of the following designations best describe pure helium gas [He(g)l? It is an element. It is a compound. It is a homogeneous mixture. It is a heterogeneous mixture.arrow_forwardThe following are properties of substances. Decide whether each is a physical property or a chemical property. a Chlorine gas liquefies at 35C under normal pressure. b Hydrogen burns in chlorine gas. c Bromine melts at 7.2C. d Lithium is a soft, silvery-colored metal. e Iron rusts in an atmosphere of moist air.arrow_forward
