Answer:

Intensive

Step-by-step explanation:

The physical property of a substance can either be extensive or intensive depending on whether it is dependent on the size or type of that substance. Extensive property are those that depends on the amount of a substance e.g mass, volume etc.

Intensive property is a property that does not depend on the size or amount of matter in the sample but only depends on the type of matter instead. Examples of intensive property are density, temperature, boiling point etc.
