Characteristic properties are used because the sample size and the shape of the substance does not matter . 1 gram of lead is still the same color as 100 tons of lead.
33.
It is well known that light, or more generally an electromagnetic wave, carries not only energy but also momentum, which is a characteristic property of all objects in translational motion.

In 1989, Diener proposed that, based on their characteristic properties, viroids are more plausible " living relics " of the RNA world than are introns or other RNAs then so considered.

Thus the characteristic property of space, that of having three dimensions, is only a property of our distribution board, a property residing, so to speak, in the human intelligence.

Three main types of cheese rely on moulds for their characteristic properties : blue cheese, soft ripened cheese ( such as camembert and brie ) and rind-washed cheese ( such as taleggio ).

The characteristic properties of tau neutrino interactions were that several tracks suddenly appeared without any leading up to them and that one of those tracks would show a " kink " after a few millimeters, indicating decay of a tau lepton.

The characteristic properties of lead include high density, softness, malleability, ductility, poor electrical conductivity compared to other metals, high resistance to corrosion ( conferred by its surface patina ), and a propensity to react with organic reagents.

The specific mixture of hydrocarbons gives a fuel its characteristic properties, such as boiling point, melting point, density, viscosity, etc . Some fuels like natural gas, for instance, contain only very low boiling, gaseous components.

Further, the characteristic property of infinite sets is given : an infinite class may be in 1 : 1 correspondence with a proper subset ( p 57 ), so that " an infinite class is no greater than some of its parts " ( p 43 ).
