Question

Which of the following are extensive properties?

(AIIMS 2018)

• A. Volume and enthalpy
• B. Volume and specific heat
• C. Pressure and temperature
• D. Volume and temperature

Answer 1

The correct option is A Volume and enthalpy

Extensive properties depend upon the quantity of the matter contained in the system. e.g., volume and enthalpy, etc. Intensive properties depend only upon the nature of the substance and are independent of the amount of the substance present in the system e.g., temperature, pressure and specific heat, etc.
Hence, option (a) is correct answer.
