Tbh, you can do a quick Google search. This isn't too tough of a question. Extensive properties of a substance are quantitative properties I suppose, like mass, volume, etc.

OpenStudy (ipwnbunnies):

Oh, also, both of these fall under the category of physical properties.

OpenStudy (ipwnbunnies):

Intensive properties are I guess properties of an element you can't necessarily quantify, like hardness, color I believe.

OpenStudy (ipwnbunnies):

Here's a better definition lol. Intensive properties are physical properties that do not depend on the amount of matter of the substance.

@iPwnBunnies thank you!

OpenStudy (ipwnbunnies):

Oh also, volume isn't a good extensive property. Density is a better one.
