Fixed volume In terms of gases,is that a fixed volume would mean that the pressure, temperature and the number of molecules can change but the volume, or area in which the molecules lie, must remain constant.
Think of a metal drinking bottle versus a plastic bottle. You cannot squirt water from a metal bottle because the shape is fixed, therefore the volume. You can squirt water from a plastic bottle because you can change the shape and reduce the volume.
No, liquids do not have a fixed volume - their volume is that of the container
A gas has no fixed volume or shape.
A solid has a fixed volume and does not change shape.
A solid has a fixed volume and form. A liquid has a fixed volume but has the form of a container. A gas has not a fixed volume or form.
The substance would be in a gaseous state if it had no fixed volume. Gases have no fixed shape or volume and can expand to fill the container they are in.
The phase of matter with no fixed shape but fixed volume is a liquid. Liquids take the shape of their container but maintain a constant volume because the particles are close together but can move past each other.
Yes, solids have a fixed shape and volume. The particles in a solid are closely packed and have strong intermolecular forces that prevent them from moving freely, thus maintaining a fixed shape and volume.
