gas has no shape and no definite volume. liquids have no definite shape, but a definite volume, and solids have a definite volume and a definite shape
What state Matter does not have a definite shape or definite matter?
That would be gas. Liquids have no definite shape but definite volume, and solids have definite shape and definite volume. :)
An object that has definite volume but indefinite shape is a?
Gas is an object that has no definite shape or volume. Solids and liquids have volume.
Which states of matter have no definite shape?
Only solids have a defined, constant shape.
Is a liquids volume definite?
Yes. No definite shape, definite volume.
Which of the three states does not have a definite volume or definite shape?
The answer you're looking for is likely gas. However, liquids CAN be compressed so their volume is not quite as definite as it would seem.
How many states of matter can be compressed?
One. It is gas as gas does not have a definite shape or volume thus it can be compressed. Liquids do not have a definite shape but it has a definite volume, making it unable to compress. Solids have both a definite shape and volume thus it also cannot be compressed.
What is a property of both the solid state and the liquid state?
Both gases and liquids have an indefinite shape - they will take the shape of the container they are held in. The difference between gases and liquids is that liquids have a definite volume while a gas does not.
What states of matter have definite volume?
Solids and liquids are two states of matter that occupy a definite volume. The molecules in them are bonded by strong intermolecular forces which do not allow them to be compressed to a very large extent.
What has definite volume and shape?
Solids have definite shape and definite volume. Liquids have not definite shape but have definite volume. Gases have neither definite shape not definite volume.
Which state of matter has a definite volume and no definite shape and takes the shape of its container?
Liquids have no definite volume or shape and take the shape of their containers.
Does liquid have a definite shape or definite volume?
