Does steam has a definite volume and a definite shape?
No. Steam is a gas, thus volume is a variable. (It is often referred to as a vapor since it is usually near its liquid condition.)
How do you use thermodynamics steam tables?
The steam tables have 16 columns as follows: pressure (absolute), temperature, specific volume of vapor, specific volume of liquid, heat of the liquid, heat of vaporization, total heat of the vapor, entropy of the liquid, entropy of vaporization, entropy of the vapor, internal heat of the liquid, internal heat of vaporization, and internal heat of the vapor (occasionally the external heat of the liquid, vaporization and vapor are included) If the temperature and pressure of steam are known then cross referencing the heat or the volume of a known quantity of the steam can be done. the heat content(enthalpy) of the liquid or vapor can be extrapolated from the chart, as can the entropy and internal energy. The enthalpy less the internal energy = the external energy (or the actual energy required to expand the liquid to a vapor) By determining the starting heat content of steam and final or exhaust heat content of steam the efficiency of a steam engine can be determined. Along with these calculations are the determinations of heat losses, steam quality, loss to entropy,...etc. all calculated using various instruments and the steam tables.
How the steam changes back into a liquid inside the condenser?
The steam when cooled changes back to liquid water
What is a steam a gas or a solid or a liquid?
Steam is the gas phase of water
Why liquid water changing into steam is a physical not a chemical change?
The steam when cooled changes back to liquid water. A chemical change is usually not so reversible.
Does steam have definite volume?
No. Steam is a gas, thus volume is a variable. (It is often referred to as a vapor since it is usually near its liquid condition.)

When a liquid is heated its volume decreases?
it depends how hot if its at the point of steam than yes otherwise no
How much steam to make 1 ton of condensate?
1 ton of steam. how much steam is vague question. steam can be at different pressures and saturations. At 212°F, 14.7 psia, liquid water has a specific volume of 0.016716 ft3/lbm and steam has a specfic volume of 26.80 3/lbm, which is a volume ratio of ~1603 : 1 of steam:water.

What is steam called when it is a liquid?
When steam is a liquid or goes into a liquid state via condensation, then it is no longer deemed as gas or steam. Thus it is called liquid.
Steam is to water as liquid is to?
steam is to liquid as smoke is to fire
What is the steam point of the Celsius scale?
at 100 degrees liquid water will go to steam and steam will go to liquid water
Why does steam weigh less than water?
Both steam and liquid water are made of the same substance (H2O). However, in the gaseous form (steam), the molecules are moving more quickly, and they are spread apart much farther. As such, the number of molecules per given volume (the mass per volume) is lower for steam. Mass per volume is the same thing as density.
Does steam as it cooled does it evaporate to form water vapour?
If the steam is transformed in a liquid this liquid can be evatporated again.
How the steam changes back into a liquid inside the condenser?
The steam when cooled changes back to liquid water
