What else can I help you with?
Does not change shape when placed in a different container?
solid
When placed in a container will not take on the shape of the container?
solids...
Do gases change shape when placed into another container?
yes,but there are other factors such as pressure to consider.
Does not change shape when place in different container?
A gas does not change shape when placed in different containers because its particles are free to move and spread out to fill the available space, regardless of the container's shape or size. This property is known as compressibility, where gases can be compressed or expanded to fit the volume of their container.
What changes shape but doesn't change volume?
A gas can change shape but it doesn't change volume, a liquid also changes shape but doesn't change volume.
How can you tell solids and liquids apart?
Liquids are malleable, meaning you can shape them, or they can change to fit the shape of the container they are being held in. Solids are basically classified as anything that can not(dramatically) change form or conform to another shape.
Can a gas change is shape to suite the container?
Yes it can See a gas it needs to change its shape in order to fit into a container or anything that it can be in for instance....If i had a square container and a cirlce container the gas is going to have to change its shape to fit in to the round container...if the gas starts out in the square container it has to change its shape into a circle to be able to be in the circle container
What could be placed in a container that would not take on the shape of the container?
Gases, Liquids and solids are sometimes contrasted by the fact that liquids and gasses will take on the shape of the container that they are placed in while solids do not.
Does the density of a liquid change with the shape of a container?
No. the density is a characteristic of the liquid itself and not dependant on the container holding the liquid. Think of it this way: would the boiling point of a liquid change with the shape of a container? Another thought: think of a very rich, dense chocolate cake, as opposed to a very light angel food cake. You can have a very thin slice of the chocolate cake, or a ridiculously decadent slab. both pieces have the same quality of denseness, even if one is much more fun to eat.
What is definite shape of liquid?
It has no definite shape. The definition of a liquid is a substance that conforms to the shape of its container.
What molecule will not take shape of a container they are in?
A solid molecule, due to its fixed shape and volume, will not take the shape of its container. Liquids and gases, on the other hand, will conform to the shape of the container they are placed in.
Do liquid have shape?
A liquid has an indefinite shape. It takes the shape of its container.
