Question
The kinetic energy of a particle of a system is different from its other properties such as pressure, temperature and volume as it is not a/an ____.
- Intensive property
- Microscopic property
- Extensive property
- Macroscopic property
Hint:
The properties associated with a macroscopic system includes – pressure, temperature, density, volume, viscosity, resistance, surface tension of liquid etc.
The correct answer is: Macroscopic property
Microscopic approach considers the behaviour of every molecule by using statistical methods. In Macroscopic approach we are concerned with the gross or average effects of many molecules' infractions. These effects, such as pressure and temperature, can be perceived by our senses and can be measured with instruments.Microscopic properties refer to properties of atoms while macroscopic properties refer to properties of molecules. At each scale-size, the properties are further classified in terms of single atoms/molecules or multiple atoms/molecules of different types.

Pick the odd one out.
Density of substance is determined from the mass per unit volume. It is directly proportional to the mass of that substance. So this is the quality of a substance due to its mass.
Volume is the amount of space occupied by given a mass of a substance.
Temperature is the degree or intensity of the heat present in a substance or object, especially as expressed according to a comparative scale and shown by a thermometer or perceived by touch.
Pressure is an extensive property which depends on area of application of force.

In an open system, _______ can get into or out of the system.
In an open system, both mass and energy (heat and matter) can be transmitted. An open system can exchange both matter and energy that is present with its surroundings. The matter is easily exchanged between the open system and its surroundings. This can be simply described by adding or subtracting matter.
