Correct Answer - Option 1 : Pressure

Explanation:

Thermodynamic property:

  • It is a property that is measurable, and whose value describes a state of a system. Some e.g of the thermodynamic property are pressure, temperature, viscosity, density. Properties are point function i.e. these do not depend on the path followed. 
  • There are two types of thermodynamic property namely Intensive and Extensive thermodynamic property.

Difference between Intensive and Extensive thermodynamic properties are,

Intensive property

Extensive property

The properties of the system which are independent of mass under consideration are called intensive properties. These properties are not additive in nature. 

The ratio of two extensive properties is an intensive property.

The properties which depend on the mass of the system under consideration are called extensive properties.

Extensive properties are additive in nature.

For example Pressure, Specific enthalpy, Temperature, Density, Composition, Force, Specific Heat Capacity, etc.

For example Internal Energy, Enthalpy, Mass, Volume, Entropy, Weight, Heat Capacity


Hence, the pressure is an intensive thermodynamic property.

  •  Every specific extensive property is an intensive property. eg, specific enthalpy, specific internal energy.
