Solids and liquids both have definite volumes. Gasses, however, do not have a definite volume.
If I understand the question correctly, the answer is that the solid is more dense than the liquid. In other words, the solid takes up less volume than the same mass of liquid.
a solid has definite volume and shape, a liquid has definite volume but no shape. a gas has nor volume nor shape
The volume of a liquid is typically smaller than that of the corresponding solid because the molecules are more tightly packed in the solid phase due to the stronger intermolecular forces. In the case of nitrogen, the volume of liquid nitrogen is smaller than that of solid nitrogen because the molecules in liquid nitrogen are more closely packed than in solid nitrogen.
well a liquid cannot be a solid but i will interpret the question as this: what is the relationship between the units of measurement for the volume of a liquid and a solid? liquid volume- measured in mL solid volume- measured in cm cubed 1 mL=1cm cubed
The volume of a solid object such as a rock or pebble can be determined by submerging it in a liquid in a graduated cylinder or other container. The difference in the volume of the liquid is the volume of the object.
Volume can be measured in different ways depending on what king of substance do you want to measure. Also, depending on the application. Volume is equivalent to: Length x Width x Height. Liquids, on the contrary, are measured using a graduated cylinder. Solids can be measured by calculating the difference between the volumes. The volum e of the liquid, and the volume of the liquid with the solid in it. The difference of the two values is the volume of the solid. This is because, solids are measured by the amount of liquid volume that is displace. Hope it helps.
Water expands when turning to ice (which is why water pipes can burst in winter). So the difference is in volume (size).
Yes you can.You can measure the solid by putting it into a gradruated cylinder.The height of the water shows you how much volume the solid has. fun is at www.qyue.webs.com
the only difference is the energy of the atoms
the difference between the three states of matter is that a solid has a definite shape and volume. a liquid does not have a definite shape but does have a definite volume. gas does not have either.
The atoms in a solid are in a tighter formation that as they are in a liquid. In a liquid, They are loose and have the ability to pour.
The molecules in a solid vibrate in place. The molecules of a liquid are moving about.
