The state of matter that has definite volume, but indefinite shape is the liquid state.

A solid constantly has the same shape and volume.

A wooden block (solid) will not change its shape or volume unless it is melted, but that would involve changing it from solid to liquid.

A liquid constantly has the same volume, but its shape changes.

Find a cylindrical container that has the same volume as a rectangular container. Fill the cylindrical container with water. Then, pour the water to the rectangular container. The shape of the water changed from cylindrical to rectangular and the volume remained the same, unless some water was dropped in the process.

A gas has changing shape and volume.

Find a small container full of a colored gas. Open in it inside a room. The gas will spread all over the room. Its volume changed from the volume of the container to the size of the room. Its shape has changed from the shape of the container to the shape of the room.

Matter in a solid or liquid form is?

Matter in a solid form has a definite shape and volume, with particles arranged in a regular pattern. Matter in a liquid form has a definite volume but takes the shape of its container, with particles that are more loosely packed and able to move past each other.


What does not have a definite shape but they do have a definite volume?

A liquid has a definite volume (which can change with temperature), but takes the shape of its container.A Liquid is the state that has no definite shape, since the atoms can move around, it is therefore able to form itself to the shape of its container. However, since the atoms still have weak bonds to one another, it cannot fill up a closed container by stretching out the atoms. (The form of matter that does this is a gas.)* Liquids can be very slightly compressed, but not to the extent of gases.---There are 3 phases of matter. Solids, liquids and gases. Solids have a definite shape and a definite volume. Liquids do not have a definite shape but do have a definite volume. Gases do not have a definite shape as they can "flow", and they do not have a definite volume as they can fill a container by changing in pressure (density).LiquidLiquidA liquid has a definite volume but assumes the shape of any container which it is placed into.


Is sugar a chemical form of matter with a definite shape and volume?

Sugar is a chemical compound consisting of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen atoms. It is a type of matter that is typically in the form of small crystals or granules but can also be a liquid when dissolved in water. It does not have a definite shape or volume as it can flow and take on the shape of its container.


What are the characteristics of solid liquid and gas?

SOLIDS- 1.Definite shape 2.No fluidty 3.Definite volume 4.Maximum interparticle attraction forces LIQUIDS- 1.No definite shape 2.No definite volume 3.Fluid in nature Gas- 1. No definite shape 2.No definite volume 3.High fluidty 4.Lowest interparticle attraction


Does a solid have a volume or shape?

Because the particles can't move the object can't move which give it the shape and volume

What is a form of matter that does not have a definite shape or definite volume?

Water does not have a definate shape or volume because it takes the shape of any container it is put into.


State of matter with no definite shape but with definite volume?

No state of matter corresponds to this. Solids are the only state with definite shape, but they have a definite volume too.


What state or matter that has no definite volume and no definite shape is?

liquidNO! Liquid has a definite volume (at a stable temperature) which is why hydraulic systems work. GASES have no definite volume and no definite shape - the take the form and volume of their container - and can be expanded or compressed.


What form of matter has no definite size or shape?

It is called a GAS. Gases have no definite volume (can be compressed) and no definite shape
