Macroscopic property

The Macroscopique indicates the higher level of observation.

The current significance of the macroscopic scale is with large scales , under heard on a scale not Microscopique. In Biologie it is in general on our scale , but this translation is not really appropriate for the Chimie or the molecular Physique .

In these disciplines, the macroscopic properties of the matter are properties which characterize the collective behavior of a whole of substructures assembled in great number.

And contrary, one speaks about properties Microscopique S when one considers the personal properties of each one of these substructures.

For example, for a Crystalline material , a quantity such as electric conductivity is a macroscopic property. This one is dependant on microscopic properties, such as the crystalline structure on a scale Atomes.

For the lengths, the macroscopic scale corresponds to the order of magnitude of the human size (dimensions higher than 1 mm).
