Density and boiling point.

Explanation:

Density and boiling point are intensive properties, which means that no matter the size or amount of a substance, it will have those properties.

The density of water at #20^@"C"# is #"0.9982 g/mL"#. The density of isopropyl alcohol (rubbing alcohol) at #20^@"C"# is #"0.7854 g/mL"#.

The boiling point of water at #"1 atm"# pressure is #100^@"C"#. The boiling point of isopropyl alcohol at #"1 atm"# is #82.6^@"C"#.
