for wild plum to become established, and the nutrient enrichment increased fruit production. The branches of wild plum were often pruned or cut back to increase production. Cultivars, Improved and Selected Materials (and area of origin) âBlackhawkâ, âHawkeyeâ, and âDe Sotoâ cultivars are descendents of the wild species (Kindscher 1987).
Determination of chemical properties results in the change of the identity of the substance. Some properties, such as solubility, melting point, boiling point, and density are independent of the amount of. substance being examined. These properties are known as intensive properties and are used to identify a. substance.
An intensive property is a bulk property, meaning that it is a physical property of a system that does not depend on the system size or the amount of material in the system. Examples of intensive properties include temperature, refractive index, density, and hardness of an object.or example, both the mass and the volume of a diamond are directly proportional to the amount that is left after cutting it from the raw mineral. Mass and volume are extensive properties, but hardness is intensive.
