Liquids take the shape of the container that they are in.
A solid has a definite shape but the same volume in any container.
liquid
The volume of a gas is the same as the volume of its container.
Placing a rock in a container does not alter the volume of the container, although it does occupy some of that volume.
The volume of a gas is totally dependent on the container it is in, gas fills its container completely by its particles spreading out. The volume of the container is the same as volume of the gas inside the container. gasses are most commonly measured in SI units (Liters, mililiters, .....).
A substance that keeps the same volume but takes the shape of its container is known as a liquid. Liquids have a fixed volume but can move and adjust to the shape of the container they are in.
The volume and shape of a gas are determined by its volume and shape of its container.
The answer to this riddle is a liquid. Liquids have a definite volume but no fixed shape, adapting to take the shape of their container. This property allows them to fill any space they occupy while maintaining the same volume regardless of the container's shape. Examples include water, juice, or any other fluid.
A solid will remain the same volume and shape A liquid will remain the same volume but change shape to its container A gas will expand its volume to fill its container entirely
liquid
Gases do not have very specific shapes they take whatever shape surrounds them. Gas in a cubic container will take the same cubic shape as that container. Same for any shape. In the absence of gravity, a gas will expand to fill the space of any empty volume at constant pressure. If the temperature is uniform, it will be at uniform density at all points.
The amount of substance a container can hold depends on the volume or capacity of the container. This can be measured in liters, milliliters, gallons, or any other unit of volume. The container's size and shape will determine its capacity.
