That means they crash.
That depends on the liquid and the solid. Liquid mercury has a very high density. Liquid gasoline has a very low density. At the melting point the density of a liquid and a solid are almost the same.
Matter refers to something that takes up space. One of the ways that matter operates is that no two things can occupy the same space at the same time.
Volume = how much space an object occupies, that nothing else can occupy at the same time.
Gas particles (atoms or molecules) have enough kinetic energy to overcome any attractive forces (intermolecular attractions) that will keep them in solid or liquid phases. That KE keeps them moving randomly, bouncing off of each other, with a large space between them. This large space-- volume, makes the density less than the same substance in liquid or solid phases.
Gas is one of the three classical states of matter (the others being liquid and solid ). Near absolute zero, a substance exists as a solid. As heat .... 1000 atoms of protactinium as a gas occupy the same space as any other 1000 atoms for any given ...without any definite shape or volume that are in more or less random motion
Same: solid rocket boosters and liquid hydrogen/oxygen main engines.
When two or more waves occupy the same space at the same time, an interference pattern is created.
No two units of matter can occupy the same space at once. This is one of the primary properties of matter.
Solid and liquid water do have things that are in common. Both a solid and a liquid are considered matter, just in a different state. Solid and liquids also take up a fixed volume of space.
A solid and liquid have the same mass if the amount is the same.
impenetrability
liquid to solid
Two electrons can occupy the same space orbital in an atom if they have different spins. This is known as Hund's Rule.
-- Some of the air in the container is forced out, being displaced by the volume of the ruler, and being unable to occupy that same space at the same time. If there is liquid in the container, then the same goes for the liquid. -- If there is liquid in the container, then at least part of the ruler becomes wet.
A gas is most likely to change to the liquid phase when the pressure on the gas is increased. This is because the same number of molecules will have less space to occupy.
Yes. Gases are very compressible because there is a lot of empty space between the molecules. A liquid has almost no empty space between the molecules. When compressing a gas you are pushing the molecules closer together, getting rid of some of the empty space. Can't do that with liquids. Example 18grams of liquid ware will occupy 18 ml or 0.018 Liter of space (volume). Boil that same 18 grams of water and it will occupy about 24000 ml or 24 Liters of space because in the gas form the same number of molecules are farther apart with lots of empty space between them .
