What is the state of matter for an object that has both definite volume and definite shape?
Liquid is the state of matter that takes the shape of it's container and flows.
State in which matter flows as it takes the shape of a container is called a?
liquid
What energy is the total energy of all of the particles in an object always flows from warmer matter to cooler matter?
Thermal Energy
What type of matter is liquid?
you've basically answered your own question it's in the state of matter called liquid or more specifically fluid (anything that flows)
Define the LIQUID phase of matter?
The liquid phase is a state of matter that:Cannot resist a shear force (it flows - unlike a solid)andIs incompressible (unlike a gas)
Which state of matter has volume and flows but no definite shape?
A liquid has a certain volume, flows, and assumes the shape of it's container.

State in which matter flows as it takes the shape of a container is called a?
liquid
Which matter can flows easily can form drop and has a definite volume?
A liquid.
What properties do air do have?
Air has pressure, has mas has volume.,Air takes the shape of its container, flows etc..............
Can gasses flow?
Gases flow anywhere they want to. This is one of the special properties of gases. They do NOT have a definite volume or shape. They take the shape of their container and fill the volume of that container.
Which sate of matter is characterized by having a definite shape and definite volume?
a solid because the particles don't move like your computer water doesn't have a definite shape because it moves and flows gas doesn't have a definite volume because it takes the shape of its container and plasma is just special
Is uranium 235 a state in which matter flows as it takes the shape of a container?
The question is asking if U235 a liquid or a gas. It is a solid and does not flow.

How do you find the volume of composed figures?
You would use the water displacement method. Place an overflow can in a container that can catch the water that flows out of the can. Fill the can completely full of water. Place the figure in the can, and collect the water that flows out of the can. Measure the water that overflowed with a graduated cylinder, and that will give you the volume of the figure in mL. Since 1mL exactly equals 1cm3, you can also know the volume of the figure in cm3.
How is matter is clasified?
2. Classification of matter: - Study of matter is simplifed by its classification. -Matter is classified according to its state and physical properties. -States of matter - Matter is classified based on state as follows - solids, liquids and gases -Same substance (matter) can exist in three different states at different temperatures. Let us take water as an example. In solid state we see it as ice. In liquid state we see it as water. In gaseous state we call it water vapour. -Solid has definite shape, mass and volume. Example - book, brick etc. The volume of a solid can be changed only by applying external force. -This is because the molecules in a solid are closely packed as if in fixed positions. There is not much space between particles inside a solid. So it is not easy to change the shape of a solid. I.e. a solid cannot be easily compressed or expanded. -Liquid has mass and volume but no definite shape. It flows to take the shape of its container. It cannot be compressed to a smaller volume. -Since liquid can flow, it can be poured from one container to another. But a given volume of a liquid remains unchanged by pouring or transferring it from one container to another. This implies, a given amount of liquid has fixed volume. -Real life example - take 100ml water with a measuring cylinder and pour it in a 1000ml (1 litre) bottle or jar. The volume of water inside the bottle or jar still remains 100ml. -This is because, molecules in a liquid are not in fixed positions and there is space between these molecules. This allows them to move to some extent and take the shape of the container when we pour or transfer. But at the same time they are not so far apart that they can expand to take the shape of the container. -Gases have no definite shape or volume. They expand to occupy the space or volume available. So the volume of gas in a container, say a cylinder, is equal to the volume of the cylinder. -They can also be compressed to a limited space or volume. In other words they can be easily expanded or compressed to fill a container. -Real life examples - when we blow a balloon the air or gas we pump in, fills up the space in the balloon. Thus the air or gas also takes the shapw of the balloon. Another E.g. is that a cycle or car tyre has air in it. But we can pump more air into it by compressing the air inside. -This is because molecules of a gas are loosely packed. There is lot of space between them. (About 1000 times more space than those in liquids). This allows them to move more freely than the particles of liquid. -Oxygen, hydrogen, carbon dioxide, nitrogen are all examples of gases. Air is a mixture of gases. It has 78% nitrogen and 21% oxygen http://jonkey.blogspot.com/2006/09/chemistry-unit-1-matter-and-its.html
