Which has a definite volume and indefinite shape gas or liquid?

Super-cooled liquidsA gas takes the shape of its container and fills it, as well. A liquid takes the shape of its container but doesn't fill it necessarily. A solid has a definite volume and shape and usually, but not always, exhibits a crystalline structure. Solids that do not have a crystalline structure are sometimes called "super-cooled liquids" because liquids have no crystalline structure. Glass is a good example of a solid that has no crystalline structure.


Does a liquid have an indefinite volume?

The meaning of indefinite volume is that the sample would expand to fill the entire container. Gases are the only thing to do this.


What is a pipette?

A pipette is used to accurately measure the volume of a liquid in the laboratory. In the school laboratory the pipette is usually a glass bulb with a glass tube on either end. There is a line on the tube to indicate how high to fill the pipette to measure the required volume.


Why is shaving cream a liquid?

Shaving gel is a liquid: it has no crystaline structure; it flows; and it takes the shape of its container (although it doesn't FILL its container, as a gas does). And consider this: Jell-O -- the edible version, not the powder in the box -- is also a liquid, even when it's set! And many people consider glass -- yes, glass! -- to be a "super-cooled" liquid, because it lacks crystaline structure and will, believe it or not, flow, albeit over very long periods of time. Panes of glass in very old windows tend to be thicker at the bottom than the at top because gravity causes the glass to "ooze" downward.


How do you find displaced volume?

The amount of a liquid that is displaced by a solid = the volume of that solid. You could half fill a graduated cylinder. Drop something that sinks into the graduated cylinder to test its volume.

Why does water in a glass tube contracts first then expand when heated?

glass is a bad counductor of heat, so at first the glass flasks expands and its volume inside increases. the liquid which has not started to expand yet, drops to fill the extra volume inside


Why does water fill the bottom of a glass Rather than cling to the sided?

Water is a liquid for starters... & The definition of a liquid is "A matter that has a definite volume but NO definite shape." Therefore it's shape can move around.


How are liquid different from gas?

because liquid have definite volume but not definite shape and gas does not have definite shape or volume but it fill space


How can one find the volume of an object using graduate cylinder?

It depends on what type of volume you are looking for. If its liquid volume, then measure at the rim of the water. If its solid volume then fill the glass up to, well, 5 and slowly put the object in it. Lets says the water went up to 8. Then the volume would be 3.


Can you fit 2 pints into 1 pint glass?

fill glass with dry sand , sand will hold its own volume of liquid , and a pint of water = 2 pints in a pint glass


How could you determine the volume occupied by a small rock?

I believe Archimedes came up with this... Fill a beaker or glass to the brim with water. Place the beaker in a bath, bowl or similar. Gently place the rock into the glass of water, allow the liquid to overflow into the bowl. The water displaced by the rock (which is now in the bowl and you can measure the volume of) is the volume of the rock. Hope this helps!

Why does a glass bottle make different sounds when you fill it with watre?

Because the volume of air gets less as you fill it - making a higher sound.


How long it would take for a bacterium to multiply and fill a watch glass by half of the glass's volume when it takes 100 years to completely fill the glass?

Since bacteria multiply in a geometric progression, the glass would be half full exactly one cycle before the watch glass is entirely full, by volume. Assuming none of the bacteria die during the process of multiplication. (NOT REQUIRED)


Why can't 10ml of liquid fill a 20ml container?

A 10 ML of liquid can't fill a 20 ML container because although liquids do not have a definite shape they have a definite volume.


What is the volume that you can fill by evaporating one ounce of helium liquid?

It will fill any container you evaporate it into, and still exert pressure on the inside of the container in its relentless quest for more volume. That's just what gases do.


What does this means that the liquid didn't have enough volume to fill their container?

perhaps you drank some before you poured it in.
