(c) If the Assertion is correct but Reason is incorrect.

Explanation:

The properties of a system which depend upon quantity of matter contained in it are called extensive properties, e.g., mass, volume, heat capacity etc. But mass / volume = density is an intensive property as density does not depend upon quantity of matter in a system.
