Density is a property of matter that describes how much mass is contained in a given volume. It is considered a physical property because it can be observed or measured without changing the substance’s chemical structure. For instance, when you measure the density of a substance, you are not altering its chemical composition.
When categorizing density further, it is identified as an intensive property. Intensive properties are those that do not depend on the amount of substance present. This means that regardless of the size or quantity of the material, its density remains constant. For example, whether you have 1 liter or 100 liters of water, the density of the water remains the same at a given temperature and pressure.
