What must be true for metamorphism to occur?
the process must take place underground~ apex
State in which matter has definite shape volume?
Solids. Liquids and gases take the shape of the container they're in and the volume of gases changes with pressure and temperature.
Is the ability of a solid to resist changes in shape?
Sort of. A solid can have a change in shape, but it has to be forced upon the object, whereas a liquid would have involuntary shape change.
Why does a sponge changes its shape although it is a solid?
It changes shape because the water which absorbes into the sponge makes the sponge ore spongey to be squashed and moveable.
A substance that has a fixed volume and a fixed shape?
It sounds like you are studying liquids, solids and gases.A liquid doesn't have a definite shape; it will shape like any container you pour it in.A gas doesn't have a definite volume; you can keep it at high pressure or low pressure and it will squeeze.A solid is the third type of physical state.
What phase of matter maintains its shape when force is applied to it?
A solid will maintain its shape when force is applied to it.
When solid rock deforms and returns to its original shape it has undergone?
When a solid rock deforms and then returns to its original shape, it is known as elastic deformation. The rock doesn't break under pressure, but instead changes its form, and after the pressure is released the rock goes back to its shape.
Can rubber be regarded as solid?
a rubber band changes shape under force and regains the same shape when the force is removed.if excessive force is applied it breaks therefore yes
How can pressure change a liquid into a solid?
Liquid changes to gas when pressure is reduced and temperature is increased. When pressure on liquid is reduced, the inter molecular space increases and temperature increases the kinetic energy of the atoms. This changes liquid to gaseous state

Which liquid change directly to solid?
Water changes directly to a solid when heat is applied
Do you measure yogurt as a solid or a liquid for cooking?
It's a semi-solid or solid. It does not follow the shape of the container it is in unless force is applied to it, scooping with spoon, pouring it (air pressure) etc.
State in which matter has definite shape volume?
Solids. Liquids and gases take the shape of the container they're in and the volume of gases changes with pressure and temperature.
Is the ability of a solid to resist changes in shape?
Sort of. A solid can have a change in shape, but it has to be forced upon the object, whereas a liquid would have involuntary shape change.
What is the effect of heat on solid?
Heat increase molecular vibration in solid and to the certain point, the molecule would overcome the attractive force and change the state to liquid or gas depending on the surrounding pressure.
Properties of a solid?
Structural rigidity and resistance to changes of shape or volume.
Why does a sponge changes its shape although it is a solid?
It changes shape because the water which absorbes into the sponge makes the sponge ore spongey to be squashed and moveable.
