Which property is an intensive property and can be described using colour?

• A. Mass
• B. Volume
• C. Colour
• D. Area

Answer: (C)

Intensive properties don’t depend on how much material you have. Color fits this because the color you observe comes from the substance’s composition and how it interacts with light, not from the amount present. Doubling the sample doesn’t change the color under the same lighting, even though mass, volume, and area would increase with more material or larger size. So color is the property that can be described using color and remains consistent regardless of quantity.
