well, it depends on the size of the solid and container.
possibly because the liquid didnt have enough volume to fill the container also because logicaly we dont really fill a container to the rim instead we get a container that is a little bigger.............just the way the human body works
A gas. Gas will expand to fill the available space.
Only a liquid can completely fill its container. While it may seem that a gas could, gas is compressible, so even if the container seems full of a gas, more can be put in, so it is never really full.
Which is NOT true? 1. Molecules in a gas are close together compared to their large molecular size. 2. A solid has a set shape and volume. 3. Molecules in a gas spread out to fill their container. 4. Molecules in a liquid have more freedom of movement than those in a solid. 5. Molecules in a solid are close together.
Carbon dioxide as a gas is invisible, odorless, and expands to fill its container. In contrast, as a solid (dry ice), it is a white, solid substance that sublimes directly from a solid to a gas without melting.

The answer depends on the solid. If you dumped a large solid metal cube into a truck, it would not "spread outward" to fill a container. If you dumped small BBs (think BB gun BBs) into the same truck, the BBs would spread out & fill the container (if you poured enough of the BBs into the container to fill it). Both are solids, but one solid will not 'spread out' like the others.

The gas expand to fill the volume of the container.
No. Solids have definite shape and mass. Liquids, however, DO spread to take the shape of their container.---Answer 2:The answer depends on the solid.If you dumped a large solid metal cube into a truck, it would not "spread outward" to fill a container.If you dumped small BBs (think BB gun BBs) into the same truck, the BBs would spread out & fill the container (if you poured enough of the BBs into the container to fill it).

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.
Put solid in a container ; fill container with water to a known container volume; take object out of container and read the remaining volume. subtract this remaining volumefrom the known volume. This result is the volume of the regular or irregular shaped solid.
A gas will expand to fill up the container it is in because the particles are free to move and have a lot of kinetic energy. Solids and liquids have more compacted particles and won't expand to fill the container.
A gas. Gas will expand to fill the available space.
Only a liquid can completely fill its container. While it may seem that a gas could, gas is compressible, so even if the container seems full of a gas, more can be put in, so it is never really full.

All four states of matter could fill a container completely if there was enough of them.That said the properties of the 3 states of matter (that you need to know about for high/secondary school) are:Solid - Fixed shape and fixed volume.Liquid - No fixed shape but fixed volume.Gas - No fixed shape, no fixed volume and fill the space available.A large enough volume of liquid or solid could fill a container completely but only the smallest amount of a gas will fill the whole container.
