What is a expansion?

Expansion is the process that is observed when an object's size and volume increases therefore changing its shape


Why does changing the shap of an object have no affect on the density of that object?

Density is mass divided by volume: Changing the shape (say by bending it) changes neither.


What form of matter has no definite shape but has a definite volume?

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.

How can you change the shape of an object without changing the volume of the object?

Just change the shape and make sure the dimensions equal the same volume. Like 5 times 20 is the same as 50 times 2. Hope this helped!:)
