What else can I help you with?
What substance expand to fill the entire volume of its container?
A gas can expand to fill the entire volume of its container because the particles are not confined and can move freely. When a gas is placed in a container, it will fill the entire space available to it.
Does a gas have a deifinite volume?
The volume of a gas is dependent on the pressure and temperature of the gas.
Which element will uniformly fill a closed 2.0 liter container at STP?
At Standard Temperature and Pressure (STP), one mole of any ideal gas will occupy 22.4 liters. So to fill a 2.0 liter container at STP, you would need 2.0/22.4 = 0.089 moles of an ideal gas. This means any gas that is present in that amount and under those conditions can uniformly fill the container.
What is the substance called that occupies the entire volume of the container?
This would be a gas. A gas expands to fill the space of the container that contains it.
If A scientist places 25 ml of a yellow substance into a 50 ml container the substance quickly fills the entire container is it a solid liquid or gas?
liquid because the yellow substance takes the form of the container.
How can you tell the substance in the container is a gas?
It expands to fill the container.
Do particles in a gas fill the bottom of their containers regardless of the shape or volume of the container?
Yes, particles in a gas will fill the available space of their container and take on the shape of the container. The volume of the container doesn't affect this behavior as the particles will distribute evenly throughout the space.
What does not take the shape of the container it is in?
Solids conform to your needs. [As distinct from gases and liquids.]
A fluid that will expand to fill a closed container is called a what?
A fluid that will expand to fill a closed container is called a gas. Gases have the ability to fill the entire volume of a container because their particles are in constant, random motion and have enough energy to overcome any forces that may confine them.
What is the matter in a gas state will out to fill its container?
The gas molecules move freely and independently from one another, filling the entire volume of their container because of their high kinetic energy. This results in the gas taking the shape of its container and exerting pressure on its walls evenly.
What phase of of matter has its volume determined by its container?
A gas. Gas will expand to fill the available space.
What does the word liquid mean in science?
In science, "liquid" refers to a state of matter that has a definite volume but takes the shape of its container. Liquids flow and can be poured, but do not expand to fill the entire space of a container like gases.
