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.
Density (d) depends upon the mass (m) and volume(v) of a substance. The mass depends upon the amount of matter in a substance, whereas volume is the amount of space that a substance takes up. Mathematically, density is equal to a ratio where d = m/v. Although mass and volume are extensive properties (depend upon how much matter is present), density is considered to be an intensive property (does not depend upon how much...
