Question

define extensive properties

Answer 1

By contrast, an extensive property is additive for subsystems.[2] This means the system could be divided into any number of subsystems, and the extensive property measured for each subsystem; the value of the property for the system would be the sum of the property for each subsystem. For example, both the mass, m, and the volume, V, of a diamond are directly proportional to the amount that is left after cutting it from the raw mineral.

The ratio of two extensive properties of the same object or system is an intensive property. For example, the ratio of an object's mass and volume, which are two extensive properties, is density, which is an intensive property.[3]

The terms intensive and extensive quantities were introduced by Richard C. Tolman in 1917.[4]

Answer 2

1)an extensive properties are physical properties that depend on the matter
2)depend on the amount of matter
3)some examples include volume and mass and energy etc
