Is it true that volumes of solids can be expressed in liters or milliliters?

Liters and any denomination of liters are a unit of volume. The definition of matter includes that it has to take up space - volume. So you can indeed use liters and milliliters to measure the volume of a solid. However, the alternative is to use meters (cubed) and any denomination of meters to represent volume. You could say that something is 1.00 liters or you could say that the same thing is 1000 cm3.

Does a milliliter measure a solid or liquid?
Milliliters and liters are units of volume.
Do solids keep their volumes?
Yes, solids keep their volume.
How is gas different from solids and liquids?
Both liquids and Solids have definite volumes
What do both liquids and solids fix?
Solids and liquids both have fixed volumes.
The law of combining volumes applies only to gas volumes?
The law of combining volumes states that the ratios of volumes of reacting gases can be expressed as small whole number ratios. This law is based on the assumption that gases behave ideally, meaning they occupy the same amount of space as predicted by the ideal gas law. Therefore, this law does not apply to the volumes of liquids or solids.
Do solids have volumes that stay the same?
Normally, yes.
What do both solids and liquids have fixed?
I had that wordserch homework, i'v just found out the answer! Its: Volumes (with an s on the end :}) Enjoy! x
How many cubic centimeters are in 5 millimeters?
Impossible to answer because cubic centimeters are a VOLUME, and millimeters is a LENGTH. Perhaps you meant to use the word 'millilitres' which IS a volume. Milliliters and Cubic Centimetres are ALWAYS equal to each other. The volume of LIQUIDS are usually expressed in milliliters ( ml) and the volume of SOLIDS are usually expressed in cubic centimeters (cc)
How is a gas diferent from a solid?
both liquids and solids have definite volumes
What properties of solids determine the volumes and surface area?
Resistance to deformation.
What is the ratio of the volumes of two similar solids?
The ratio of the volumes of two similar solids is proportional to the cube of the diameter - or of any other linear measurement. For example, at twice the diameter, you would have 8 times the volume.
One advantage of the prismoidal formula is that you can use it to Acalculate precise volumes of all prismoids Bcalculate both volume and surface area Cdetermine volumes of figures that are not prismoi?
estimate the volume of solids that are combinations of other solids
