Answer:

Intensive properties can be used to help identify a sample because these characteristics do not depend on the amount of sample, nor do they change according to conditions.

Step-by-step explanation:

Intensive properties are bulk properties, which means they do not depend on the amount of matter that is present. Examples of intensive properties include:

Boiling Point

Density

State of Matter

Color

Melting Point

Odor

Temperature

Refractive Index

Luster

Hardness

Ductility

Malleability

Step-by-step explanation:

When amount of matter changes in a substance then a physical property that does not change due to this is known as an intensive property.

For example, density, color, boiling point, hardness etc are all intensive properties.

Whereas property of a substance that changes due to change in amount of matter of a substance is known as extensive property.

For example, temperature, volume etc are all extensive properties.

Hence, we can conclude that given properties are classifies as follows.

Intensive property : color, hardness, boiling point, density, temperature.

Extensive property : length, volume, mass.
