Solids and liquids both have fixed volumes... in that if they are put into a container, they will not expand to fill the container. Gases on the other hand, do the exact opposite - they expand to fill their containers, thus not having fixed volumes.
Nope
I had that wordserch homework, i'v just found out the answer! Its: Volumes (with an s on the end :}) Enjoy! x
Yes they do. Liquids have no fixed shape and gases have no fixed volume.
The very definition of a solid is a substance that has a fixed volume and shape, all solids fall into this category. Sand particles may be able to flow, but each granule itself is solid and won't be able to flow unless it becomes a liquid.
Liquids do, but solids do not.
- Solutions can be saturated or unsaturated. or - Solutions of solids in liquids, solids in solids, liquids in liquids (rarely used the expression gas in gas).

They are both incompressible, and they have a fixed volume at a fixed temperature.
solids and liquids
solids and liquids
They both have definite volume and mass but no definite shape.
Both liquids and Solids have definite volumes
Yes they do. Liquids have no fixed shape and gases have no fixed volume.
both are fixed (unless acted upon by outside forces) in a solid; volume is fixed but shape is malleable in a liquid; and both are malleable in a gas.
Fluids are neither solids nor liquids. Fluids are a form between solids and liquids. Fluids donot exhibit a fixed shape like solids do and also are not free flowing as liquids are. Fluids, while maintaining their total volume can flow freely upto a certain extent. Though not very accurate, a fluid behaves some what like ketchup :)
Sort of, Solids have a fixed shape, while liquids have no fixed shape.
