An example of an extensive property is
A
color
B
density
C
volume
D
temperature
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -An extensive property is a property that depends on the amount of matter in a sample. Mass and volume are examples of extensive properties.

Detailed explanation-2: -Volume, size, mass, length, and weight are some examples of extensive properties.

Detailed explanation-3: -The volume is determined by the mass and the constant of proportionality is the density which is specific to the substance. Density, mass and volume are all directly related for a given substance (and could be thought of as being different ways to measure the same thing). Therefore all are extensive properties.

Detailed explanation-4: -Volume is the amount of space occupied by a sample of matter. The volume of a regular object can be calculated by multiplying its length by its width and its height. Since each of those is a linear measurement, we say that units of volume are derived from units of length.

Detailed explanation-5: -Extensive variables depend on the amount of material. These are a material’s properties such as mass and volume. Intensive variables are independent of the amount of material.
