differentiate between additive and constitutive properties
Additive properties:
These are the properties which depend on the total contribution of atoms or the sum of corresponding properties of individual atoms within the molecules. e.g. molecular weight.
Constitutive property:
These are the properties which depend upon the constitution or structural arrangement of atoms within the molecules. e.g. optical and electrical properties.
