What is an intrinsic property of a substance?
Answer: C
Cutting a quantity of butter in half leaves both halves with the same density and melting point, which are intrinsic, but each has half the mass and volume, which are extrinsic. That division is what allows inference about parts of a substance. Internal structure, destructiveness and uniqueness are different notions. Classifying properties by whether they survive division is what lets an ontology reason correctly about quantities rather than only about individuals.
