Although they have different masses (meaning one is denser than the other), they will take up exactly the same amount of space because they have the same volume.

Does a liquid take up a different amount of space when it is put into a different containers?

No. Liquids have a definate, or fixed volume.


Can different kinds of matter take up the same amount of space but have different masses?

Yes. The amount of space matter takes up is volume. Different substances have different densities, which are calculated by mass divided by volume most commonly in the unit g/cm^3 (grams per cubic centimeter). Mass depends on the nucleus/i of the substance, while volume depends on its nucleus/i as well as the electrical field formed by the repulsion of electrons.


Does a liquid takes up a different amount of space when put into a different countainer?

No it just takes the shape of the container. Same amount of space (volume). Generally speaking you can really compress a liquid but not noticeable before it solidifies (for most liquids). Different deal for Newtonian liquids tho.


Does a liquid take up space?

Yes. To clarify: Solids : Take up a definite space and have defined shape Liquids : Take up a definite space but have no defined shape Gas : Have no defined space or shape.


What does matter occupy?

Matter occupies physical space. It consists of atoms and molecules that are packed together in different arrangements to form solids, liquids, and gases. The space that matter occupies is defined by its volume.


What are the differences between liquids and gases?

Liquids have a definite volume and take the shape of their container, while gases have neither a definite volume nor shape, filling the entire space available to them. Gases are compressible, while liquids are not. Additionally, gases exhibit lower intermolecular forces compared to liquids.


What is a property of both the solid state and the liquid state?

Both gases and liquids have an indefinite shape - they will take the shape of the container they are held in. The difference between gases and liquids is that liquids have a definite volume while a gas does not.


What term describes the amount of matter per unit volume that a substance occupies?

Volume mass area Latest correction: Of these, only volume is correct. Area is not space, and mass has nothing to do with occupied space. Two objects of different volume can have identical masses, and two objects of different mass can have the same volume. The only true statement that can be made between the two is that all objects with a measurable bounded volume have mass. That is why the only possible answer is Volume


Why hydraulic oil incompressible?

it is the property of the liquids. all the liquids are incompressible. this is because the change in volume due to pressure is negligible for liquids. in liquids the molecules are almost compact and hence no space for compression.


Amount of space matter takes up?

Matter is defined as something that has mass and takes up space. Mass is defined as the amount of matter something contains. Since these two definitions run into each other, what exactly - without use of the corrasponding words

Do all Liquids have a fixed volume nd takes the shape of its container?

Yes, liquids have a fixed volume but not a fixed shape. They take the shape of their container due to their ability to flow and assume the shape of the space they occupy.
