What is the most stable state solid liquid or gas?
Solids are the least able to be changed. Liquidshave their volume conserved, though the shape may change. Gases have neither fixed volume nor shape.
What container will least insulate a cold drink?
A normal plastic cup.
Which of these liquids flows fastest when poured?
The liquid that flows the fastest when poured is the least viscus. This liquid might be liquid water for example.
What is the method used to find the volume of an irregular object using a graduated cylinder?
The method you would use is to take a graduated cylinder, face the markings towards you, fill the cylinder with a liquid that won't react with said object (usually water is fine) to an appropriate measure (around half way depending on the size of the object), record the volume before placing the object in the fluid, place the object in the fluid and record the volume after, subtract the initial from the total (liquid +object's displacement) and you will have the objects volume. However you must be aware that certain objects will float or at least have some amount of buoyancy making determining it's volume harder to ascertain (if at all possible) with this method.
Can energy be transferred from form to another?
yes it can. a solid turns to a liquid at its melting point, a liquid is turned into a gas at its boiling point and last but not least, a gas can turn into a liquid at its dew point also called condinsation, and also last but not least, a liquid turns into a solid at its freezing point.
When a ruler is placed into a clear container what changes take place?
-- Some of the air in the container is forced out, being displaced by the volume of the ruler, and being unable to occupy that same space at the same time. If there is liquid in the container, then the same goes for the liquid. -- If there is liquid in the container, then at least part of the ruler becomes wet.
What is the rigidity of solid liquid and gas?
RIGIDITY AND FLUIDITY Solid is the most rigid one amongst the three. It has a fixed shape and volume that is independent of the container's. Liquid is the second rigid one. It has a fixed volume but a flexible shape, i.e. its shape depends on the container but the volume does not. Gas is the least rigid one. It does not have a fixed volume nor shape. Its volume and shape depends on the
What holds 40ml?
Any container with a volume which at least 40 millilitres.
Sophie was asked to distinguish gases from solids and liquids. Which of the following answers would be most correct?
Gases adopt the form of the container it contains an hasn't a constant volume.. A liquid adopt the form of the container it contains but has a constant volume. A solid has form and constant volume.
How come the sun moon and earth are spherical?
A liquid or semi-liquid without a container in microgravity takes on the shape that has the least amount of surface area compared to the volume. That would be a sphere. Now, if it is turning there will be a slight bulge at the equator of the ball, which there is.
Why does a liquid have a fixed shape?
It doesn't! It takes the shape of whatever container you put it in. At least, it takes the shape of the floor of the container.
What holds 180 gallons of water?
A container with a volume of at least 24.06 cubic feet.
How do you tell which one is the densest liquid if you pour three liquids into a beaker?
To identify a liquid that is most dense it would be at the bottom of a container because the the most dense sinks while the least dense float at the top. example. if your teacher gave you an experiment to do and she gave you olive oil,dish soap,and color water. and you put those liquid in a see through container the least dense is the alcohol because that has the least density in it, and the most dense is soap. so if you put a couple of liquids in a container the most dense will appear at the bottom while the least will be on top. hope this help:)
What properties must a solid have for the water displacement method to be useful?
Volume. The displacement method refers to immersing in a liquid. If the liquid is in a container with volume measurement marks, then the object's volume is the difference in the liquid's volume, measured before and after immersion. There's a legend that the discovery of the displacement method was made by Archimedes when entering a bathtub full of water, which overflowed. This is postulated as the source of the exclamation "Eureka!" ("I have found it").
A container holds 135ml of dry sand what is the cubic volume of this container?
At least 135 millilitres. If it was full of sand then its capacity is 135 ml but there is nothing in the question to indicate that it was filled with the sand.
What happens when a liquid is mixed with a solid?
provided neither substance is hot or cold enough to cause the other substance to change state, the liquid will conform to the container it is in, if it is not in a container, it will flow with the path of least resistance. Just pour some water on a rock... come on.
How do you find the volume of the rock?
By its mass sweety. :) * * * * * It depends on the size of the rock. If you can lift it, find a container that is big enough to hold it. Put that container inside a collecting tray. Fill the container with water (or another liquid) to a level at least as high as the rock. Mark that level. Put the rock in the container gently. Measure the rise in the level of water and, if appropriate, collect the water that overflowed into the collecting tray. Calculate the difference in the two water levels. Add the overflow volume if appropriate. That sum is the volume of water displaced by the rock and so the volume of the rock. If the rock is too massive to lift or be contained in something you will need to estimate its volume. That can be done by profiling its shape and partitioning that into smaller, more regular shapes. Calculate the volumes of all those shapes and sum the answers.
