39. In thermodynamics, a distinction is made between extensive properties and intensive properties. An extensive property is a property whose value depends on the
quantity or size of matter present in the system. For example, mass, volume, internal energy, enthalpy, heat capacity, etc. are extensive properties.
Those properties which do not depend on the quantity or size of matter present are known as intensive properties. For example, temperature, density, pressure etc. are intensive properties.
