Dab-CU

Hmm. Seems to me, and i think to the user who tagged for the cleanup, that the accompanying main-namespace page is a SIA. I left a note for the Dab tagger that may elicit some logic for forcing it into a Dab strait-jacket.

Is mass intrinsic property?

I have a confusion that mass is an extrinsic property . [1] Can anyone elaborate? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Arsek1212 (talk • contribs) 12:53, 25 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The article says "mass is a physical intrinsic property of any physical object" - so I think it may be correct with that caveat (but possibly still not). Maybe it's just me, but I think choosing density might be a more clear example for an intrinsic property.128.189.225.57 (talk) 23:41, 23 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Mass is an intrinsic property, but it is also an extensive one. See below.Teetooan (talk) 23:59, 19 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Is this page complete confusion?

It seems that you are confusing intrinsic/extrinsic with intensive/extensive.

For one thing you should compare the two pairs of concepts explicitly, since they are obviously easily confused.

Typically: mass is intrinsic, but extensive; density is intrinsic and intensive for solids and liquids; for gas, density depends on the size of the container and is therefore extrinsic; weight depends on gravity and is therefore extrinsic, but is also extensive. Velocity is intensive, but since it exist only by reference to an external frame, it is extrinsic. Momentum is extrinsic and extensive.23:59, 19 August 2014 (UTC)

Intrinsic Rotation

  Intrinsic rotation of an optically active compound is the observed rotation of that compound at zero concentration.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Amalsk123 (talk • contribs) 07:13, 6 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
