I think it has to do with the molecular structure being rigid. Or at least that's what i can remember from chemistry class so many years ago.
a solid's molecules line up. a liquid's kinda hold hands and sway. a gas spreads out and likes to party.
Yes, plasticine can be compressed under pressure because it is a pliable and moldable material. When force is applied, the plasticine can be squished and shaped to form different shapes or figures.
Is plasticine a solid?Answer:yes I agree that it is a solid because it does not flow it has a fixed shape and a fixed volume. The fixed shape is the challenging one to explain because when you apply a force its shape can change but generally it stays in the shape you put it in. Plasticine is a type of modelling clay that never hardens
well there is no direct statistic because deaths related to bullying is classified as suicide and bullying by definition isn't murder
it floats as it is like a putty and it it is light.
Nutritional diseases are not classified as infectious disease because they do not fit the definition of 'infectious'. They cannot be transmitted from one person to another and the causative agents come from the environment.
A pig is classified as an ungulate because it has hooves. It is classified as an artiodactyl also because it has an even number of toes.
Silly putty is a very tricky state of matter that has the definitions of two states of matter: solid and liquid. The definition of a liquid is that it takes the shape of the container that it is in, the atoms are loose within the matter, and they flow easily. Solids have tightly packed atoms in the matter, keeps it shape - no matter what container it is in, so it has a certain size or shape (though you can change the shape of solid matter). Silly putty has a in-between atom spacing within it, it isn't just going to stay there, it can move a little. When given time, silly putty can take the shape of the container it is in, but does not flow easily. You can split apart the substance that is silly putty. The boiling point of silly putty has the same freezing point as water - freezing - 0oC, boiling point - 100oC. -kos
Yes, it is because when you melt it, it becomes soft and slimy, and when you freeze it, it will go back to it
It's both a liquid with very high viscosity and a solid with very low degree of 'hardness'.
what is air considered to be because it can take the shape of its container and it can flow
Alcohol is classified as a depressant.
glass because u melt it and shape it to a container
