The amount of fluid a container can hold is called what?
It is usually called the capacity. It is basically the same thing as the volume.
A liquid takes the shape of its container and keeps the same volume?
Due to the constant motion of the particles in a liquid, the particles could theoretically keep moving so that the liquid never takes a form. But putting the liquid into a container effectively throws a huge wall in front of the moving particles that they cannot get past. the particles hit the sides of the container and change direction. The liquid then remains in that shape despite the fact that its particles are still moving (hitting the sides of the container). Because a liquid has stronger intermolecular forces than gases, the liquid stays in liquid form and does not just evaporate once it is put into a container and its particles hit an obstacle.
Is true or false that the crystals in each mineral are the same shape?
Crystals of a certain mineral have a regular formation of atoms. However, crystals of the same mineral can grow differently. The presence of trace minerals, variations in heat, pressure, and the space that they have to grow in can influence the shape of a crystal. Crystalline structures demonstrate characteristic geographic variations for these reasons.
What a solid liquid and gas have in common?
take up space and have particles
Information about science projects on insulation?
There are many possible science projects dealing with insulation. For example, build several small containers with each wrapped in a different insulating material, then put an icecube (all the same size!) in each container, and see how the time needed for the icecube to melt varies depending upon the type of insulation used. Or put a small light bulb in each container (all of the same wattage!) and then measure the resulting temperature in each container after ten minutes. Or make blankets of various different insulating materials and see which one keeps you warm at night the most effectively.
What has different shape But has the same volume in a container?
liquid
What has different shape but the same volume in any container?
liquid
How is solid different from gas?
Gas expands to fill up it's container, while if solids are put into the same container, the will not expand. They will stay the same size and shape.
A state of matter that always has the same shape as the container it fills. You can not see this matter?
Gas has the same shape as its container fills. But some gases are visible.
What is the Formula to find capacity when given volume?
Capacity is the same as the volume of the inside of a container. Often, in mathematical exercises, the internal and external volumes are assumed to be the same (ie thickness of the container is zero). In this case, the capacity is the same as the internal or external volume.
Would water pressure be the same at the same depth in two containers that had very different shapes?
yes because if the container is smaller it has a greater pressure than a bigger container. ;)
What happened to the shape of water as you transferred it from one container to another?
the same shape
The shape of a liquid depends upon its?
A liquid takes the shape of its container.
All liquids are the same in that they take of their container?
shape but not the volume
What has a definite shape but the same volume in any container?
liquids
A liquid take the shape of it container and keeps the same what?
volumen
Does gas have volume and shape?
The volume of a sample of liquid is fixed, but may expand or contract with heat. The shape of a liquid is defined by its container. In the absence of gravity, liquids outside a container will assume a generally spherical shape.
