Why is liquid oxygen used in space shuttles?
Because when hydrogen is burnt in oxygen - the only waste product is water !
Does liquid water rise higher in a narrow tube or a wide tube?
Rise or fall of liquid in a small passage or tube. When a glass tube of small internal diameter is inserted into water, the surface water molecules are attracted to the glass and the water level in the tube rises. The narrower the tube, the higher the water rises. The water is said to "wet" the tube. Water will also be drawn into the fibres of a towel, even if the towel is in a horizontal position. Conversely, if a glass tube is inserted into mercury, the level of the liquid in the tube falls. The mercury does not wet the tube. Capillarity is caused by the difference in attraction of the liquid molecules to each other and the attraction of the liquid molecules to those of the tube.
What happen to water when it absorbs heat?
It gains heat , it becomes warm because the temperature of the liquid/water increases and it expands and use up more space
Is rain a matter?
Raindrops are made of water and water is matter.
Liquid water is heated. it changes from a liquid to a?
When liquid water is heated it changes from a liquid to a gas and then, usually, to a vapor.steam comes to mind
How can freezing water crack boulders?
When water turns from liquid water to solid ice it expands in volume. If the water is in a crack in the rock the force of this expansion can force the crack to widen and, over time, break the rock.
What happends to water in a rock a it change from liquid water to ice?
It does what all water does when it freezes: expands. This will crack the rock.

What is the volume of liquid?

Is there liquid water on the asteroid belt?
No. None of the asteroids have atmosphere, and liquid water cannot exist in the vacuum of space.
Does the same amount of water take up the most amount of space as an ice cube or a liquid gas or as water vapor?
Liquid water
If Mars did have liquid water at one time what happened to it and why?
One popular theory is that when mars lost its atmosphere, the liquid water evaporated into space.
Which takes up more space - one cup of liquid water or one cup of ice?
Liquid water would typically take up more space because as ice expands, air pockets are generated. Water takes up the entirety of the space of whatever container it is in.
The space within a cell which holds water is?
Vacuole
Does freezing then thawing a mechanical weathering of a rock?
Yes, it is a form of mechanical weathering. Water manages to get into a crack in a rock, and with cold temperatures, freezes. When transferring from a liquid to a solid, the molecules of water expand by crystallization, widening the crack in the rock.
Why water is matter?
It is a matter since it occupies space,has mass and it is in the liquid state.
