extensive
|
amount based on size of system
ex: volume, mass, energy if you divide one extensive property by another, it will yeild an intensive property |
|
intensive
|
values don't depend on size of system
ex: temperature, pressure, density |
|
steps to solving problems
|
-identify the QUESTION
-identify the EXPRESSION -apply CONVERSION FACTORS -CANCEL where appropriate -double CHECK -SOLVE |
