6Terms ending icily designate properties independent of size or shape, sometimes called specific proper ties. Examples: conductivity, resistivity. Terms ending once designate quantities depending not only on the material, but also upon size and shape, sometimes called total quantities. Examples: conductance, transmittance. Terms ending ion designate rate of heat transfer. Examples: conduction, transmission.
