GPT-4o mini · Answer

The correct response is: **No, it is not possible because they have different extensive properties.** Extensive properties depend on the amount of substance present (e.g., mass and volume), while intensive properties do not (e.g., density, reactivity). If the two samples have different masses and volumes, they cannot be the same substance, even if their reactivity and densities are similar (which are intensive properties).
