Nota:

• Anything that has mass, occupies volume and has properties that we can measure

1. Properties

   Nota:

   • Are those qualities that describe and identify it
   1. Extensives

      Nota:

      • Depend on the amount of matter that is present. Mass and volume.
   2. Intensive

      Nota:

      • Don't depend on the amount of matter that is present. Colour, hardness, smoothness

Nota:

• Is a method of determining how much there is of a specific quantity relative to an established standard unit of measurement .
