The density of gold is 19.3 g/cm³ while the density of pyrite is about 4.8 g/cm³ this means gold would displace more water than a sample of pyrite of equal size. Density is an example of a(n) intensive property, since it can be used to identify the substance no matter how much of it you have. Both samples are shiny and both could be considered 'gold' in color. If we took the masses of each sample that wouldn't help us determine the actual mineral type since mass is a(n) extensive property that can change without identifying the substance. Both gold and pyrite are insoluble in water, solubility is a(n) intensive property. If pyrite contains iron, it might be slightly attracted to a magnet. That might be another example of a(n) intensive property since it wouldn't matter how much you had present.
