How much space will liquids take up if they have the same volume but different masses?

Although they have different masses (meaning one is denser than the other), they will take up exactly the same amount of space because they have the same volume.

Does a liquid take up a different amount of space when it is put into a different containers?
No. Liquids have a definate, or fixed volume.
Does a liquid takes up a different amount of space when put into a different countainer?
No it just takes the shape of the container. Same amount of space (volume). Generally speaking you can really compress a liquid but not noticeable before it solidifies (for most liquids). Different deal for Newtonian liquids tho.
Amount of space matter takes up?
Matter is defined as something that has mass and takes up space. Mass is defined as the amount of matter something contains. Since these two definitions run into each other, what exactly - without use of the corrasponding words
Does a liquid take up space?
Yes. To clarify: Solids : Take up a definite space and have defined shape Liquids : Take up a definite space but have no defined shape Gas : Have no defined space or shape.
Why hydraulic oil incompressible?
it is the property of the liquids. all the liquids are incompressible. this is because the change in volume due to pressure is negligible for liquids. in liquids the molecules are almost compact and hence no space for compression.
What term describes the amount of matter per unit volume that a substance occupies?
Volume mass area Latest correction: Of these, only volume is correct. Area is not space, and mass has nothing to do with occupied space. Two objects of different volume can have identical masses, and two objects of different mass can have the same volume. The only true statement that can be made between the two is that all objects with a measurable bounded volume have mass. That is why the only possible answer is Volume
What Items Can You Measure in Centiliters?
Volume = Space occupied by a matter is measured in ml or l...
Can different kinds of matter take up the same amount of space but have different masses?
Yes. The amount of space matter takes up is volume. Different substances have different densities, which are calculated by mass divided by volume most commonly in the unit g/cm^3 (grams per cubic centimeter). Mass depends on the nucleus/i of the substance, while volume depends on its nucleus/i as well as the electrical field formed by the repulsion of electrons.
Why do solids and liquids behave differently?
Unlike the particles that make up solids and liquids, gas particles have a large amount of empty space between them. The space that gas particles occupy is the gas's volume, which can change because of temperature and pressure.
What is a form of matter that takes up a definite amount of space?
A solids and liquids have a definite volume, thus take up a definite amount of space. Gasses and plasma have no definite volume.
Unlike solids and liquids a gas will?
Unlike solids and liquids, a gas will expand to fill the space available to it.
What is the mathematical difference between volume and capacity?
Volume is a pace which can be occupied by some thing, whereas capacity is applies to liquids as the quantity contained in a given space.
