PROPERTIES OF MATTER

Laboratory Activity No. 1

I. INTRODUCTION

Recall that physical properties can be observed without producing new substances. Chemical
properties describe how a substance interacts with other substances to produce new substances.
Extensive properties depend upon the amount of matter in the sample; intensive properties do not.

Directions, Part 1: Classify each of the properties listed below as extensive or intensive. Then classify
each property as physical or chemical. Write the word out to earn full credit.

Property Extensive or Intensive Property Physical or Chemical Property

color Intensive Property Physical Property

combustibility Intensive Property Chemical Property

hardness Intensive Property Physical Property

density Extensive Property Physical Property

mass Extensive Property Physical Property

melting point Intensive Property Physical Property

ductility Intensive Property Physical Property

volume Extensive Property Physical Property

reactivity with acid Intensive Property Chemical Property

odor Extensive Property Physical Property

 weight Extensive Property Physical Property

malleability Intensive Property Physical Property

tendency to corrode Intensive Property Chemical Property

Directions, Part 2: Some measurements or descriptions of properties are listed below. Write which
property is being described in each case. Select properties that are listed in the table from Part 1.

A. 15 dm3 A. Volume

B. can easily be hammered into sheets B. Malleability

C. 2.8 g/cm3 C. Density
