How does the movement of particles in a liquid help to explain the shape and volume in a liquid?

Because its particles are free to move, a liquid has no definite shape. However, it does have a definite volume.

How does the movement of particles in a liquid help explain the shape and volume of liquids?
They dont
How do the positions and movement of particles in a liquid help explain the shape and volume of the liquid?
because when the atoms meet up in the gases they separate and form more gases of matter. that's basically it!
How do the positions and movements of particles in a liquide help to explain the shape and volume of the liquid?
because it nothing
How do the positions and movements of particles in a liquid help to explain the shape and volume of the liquid?
The particles of a liquid move from one place to another although they are close together. Because of this, a liquid changes shape depending on the container they are put in. It does not have a fixed shape. The volume of a liquid is fixed; it can be measured.
Particles in a gas are what apart than the particles in a liquid?
Gaseous particles have more freedom to move about as they please. They are less constrained then liquids. Liquid particles are confined to a certain volume, but not shape. Therefore, they have movement, but not as much as gases

When a load was added to the piston the volume of the liquid did not change but the volume of the air decreased Explain why this happened?
The particles in a liquid are very close together, so an increase in pressure cannot push them any closer. The particles in a gas are widely spaced, so they can easily be forced closer together. Gases are compressible, liquids are not.

Why does liquid compress much less than a gas does?
This is due to the fact that the particles of the liquid are close together and have a definite volume, whereas the particles of the gas are far apart and do not have a definite volume.
How do the particles of a liquid make it possible to pour juice into glass?
The particles of a liquid retain the same volume but are not fixed in place. As they retain the same volume no matter what container they are in, it is possible to pour juice into a glass without the particles dispersing as the particles of a gas would. Because the particles of a liquid are not fixed in place, as in a solid, the liquid can flow and fit itself to the shape of the glass.
