The specific weight of an object is an intensive property of the system.

Explanation:

We have by definition of intensive property is that which is independent of the amount of mass in the system.

now by definition of specific weight we have

$S.W=\frac{W}{V}\\\\S.W=\frac{m\times g}{V}\\\\\\S.W=\frac{\rho \times V\times g}{V}\\\\S.W=\rho \times g$

Thus we can see that specific weight is independent of amount of mass in the system thus it is an intensive property.
