Define:
- Intensive properties.
- Adiabatic process.

Answer
-
Intensive properties: The properties which depend only on the nature of the substance and not on the amount of the substance are called intensive properties, e.g. density.
-
Adiabatic process: A process during which no heat flows between the system and the surroundings is called an adiabatic process, i.e., q = 0.
