Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Intensive properties
A
based on the amount of matter present
B
does not depend on the amount of matter present
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -By definition the properties which do not depend upon the quantity of matter present in the system are called intensive properties.

Detailed explanation-2: -Intensive properties, such as density and color, do not depend on the amount of matter. Both extensive and intensive properties are physical properties, which means they can be measured without changing the substance’s chemical identity.

Detailed explanation-3: -Density is an intensive property because there is a narrow range of densities across the samples. No matter what the initial mass was, densities were essentially the same. Since intensive properties do not depend on the amount of material, the data indicate that density is an intensive property of matter.
