1. Mass - amount of matter in an object
   
   
2. Volume - amount of space an object occupies
   
   
3. Density - mass per unit volume
   
   
4. Boiling Point - temperature at which a liquid's vapor pressure equals atmospheric pressure
   
   
5. Freezing Point - temperature at which a liquid changes into a solid
   
   
6. Shininess - tendency of an object to reflect light without scattering it
   
   
7. Conductivity - tendency to allow the flow of heat or electricity
   
   
8. Ductility - ability to be stretched into wires
   
   
9. Malleability - ability to be shaped

1. Reactivity with air (oxygen)
   
   
2. Reactivity with a acid, reactivity with a base
   
   
3. Corrosiveness or ability to be corroded
   
   
4. Flammability
   
   
5. Reactivity with another element or compound to produce a different compound
   
   

1. Depends on the amount of the sample
   
   
2. Changes from sample to sample (different)
   
   
3. Not usually useful for identifying substances
   
   
4. Examples: volume, mass, weight, length
   
   

INTENSIVE PROPERTIES

1. Independent of the amount of the sample
   
   
2. Same for every sample; useful for identifying substances
   
   
3. Examples: color, density, boiling point

    

1. Only physical properties change in a physical change - a change in size, the state or the shape of matter
   
   
2. No new substances are formed - no change in the type of element, compound, atom, or molecule
   
   
3. After the physical change, you have the same substance you began with - no chemical change has occurred
   
   
4. Reversible by ordinary physical means
   
   
5. Examples: change of state (gas, liquid, solid), grinding, making solutions, dissolving a solid in a liquid
