* temperature
* pressure
* chemical potential
* density
* viscosity
* velocity
* electric field
* electrical resistivity
* melting point
* boiling point
* spectral absorption maxima (in solution)
* flammability
* specific energy

Examples of extensive properties include:

* mass
* length
* volume
* entropy
* enthalpy
* energy
