They don't. Some liquids expand when they become solid and others shrink, while some do maintain the same volume.

Give the formula for density?
To check density of any liquid , measure liquid & water in same quantity at same temperature & divide liquid weight by weight of water which gives density of liquid at that temperature.Exa. If you want to measure density of alcohol , take it in pre-weighted 10 ml cylinder & weight by using any suitable balance ( like mettller balance) note the reading as A. after that weight 10 ml water in same cylinder after rinsing & measure the weight as reading B. To get the actual weight of liquid & water subtract the empty & dry cylinder's weight-. Now calculated as under-Density of liquid= A-C/ B-C.By- S.Joshi
How are liquids and solids the same?
Liquids and solids are same in the way that they are made out of the same atoms, just those atoms are being set in a different environment and temperature.
A liquid takes the shape of its container and keeps the same volume?
Due to the constant motion of the particles in a liquid, the particles could theoretically keep moving so that the liquid never takes a form. But putting the liquid into a container effectively throws a huge wall in front of the moving particles that they cannot get past. the particles hit the sides of the container and change direction. The liquid then remains in that shape despite the fact that its particles are still moving (hitting the sides of the container). Because a liquid has stronger intermolecular forces than gases, the liquid stays in liquid form and does not just evaporate once it is put into a container and its particles hit an obstacle.
Can the amount of empty space change in a liquid?
This question doesn't make sense on it's own, it needs more context to actually be answered.
When solid changes into liquid?
Solids changing to liquids are melting Liquids changing to solids are freezing Solids changing to gas are subliming Liquids changing to gas are boiling Gases changing to liquids are condensing.
How are liquid mass and liquid volume alike?
Liquids, like solids have a definite volume. While liquids don't have a definite shape, they can take the shape of a container which can be measured the same way as with solids.
Do all solids have less volume than same mass of liquid?
No. Water ice for example will have a larger volume than an equal mass of liquid water.
What properties do solids and liquids share?
A solid is matter with a definite shape and volume. A liquid is matter that has a definite volume but no definite shape. Why? Here is an example. When you pour a liquid from one container to another, the liquid takes the shape of the container. The volume of the liquid is the same. The properties that solids and liquids share are that they both have definite volume. Source- Mrs. Kristen Eichinger, Mrs. Cindy Surplus and my Harcourt Science book
What state of matter does not change its shape or volume?
This is a liquid. Note that the volume of a liquid will change a bit with temperature, but remains relatively the same. Also note that science teachers are fond of saying that a liquid takes the shape of its container, which is pretty much the same as saying it has no fixed shape.
Why does solids have definite volume?
A solid has a definite volume because the molecules are tightly packed and whether it is an ice cube and turns into a liquid by melting it still is the same amount unless you are adding on to it.
Dose water have a definite volume?
Yes, water is a liquid and any given amount of liquid will contain the same volume. Although does not keep its definition shape. Meinert
Do 2 solids that have the same volume have the same shape?
not nessaserily a 1x8x8 rectangle has the same volume as a 4x4x4 cube
Do solids all have the same volume?
For gas and liquid, it took shape of what ever contain them. For solid, it took original shape of what ever contain them before freezing to solid or mold them to solid. The later shape of solid is due to what it suffer over time to shape it to existing shape.
Do solids have the same color and shape?
what is it called when a solid and a liquid are the same colour
How are measurements of volume for solids and liquids alike?
How are solids and liquids different that gases in terms of volume changed?
the volume of them all stay the same
Does a liquid have a definate volume?
Yes, liquid has a definite volume. It may change shape with different containers, but you always have the same volume of the liquid.
