It's a semi-solid or solid. It does not follow the shape of the container it is in unless force is applied to it, scooping with spoon, pouring it (air pressure) etc.

What foods change state of matter?

Lots of foods change states of matter. Butter and margarine and ice cream melt, changing from solid to liquid. Cheese will melt if heated enough. Milk in the process of spoiling changes from liquid to solid. Think cheese or yogurt. Vegetables and fruits can be liquefied by blending, as when making soup or juice. Vegetables will also decay and break down into a liquid state. Vegetables can also become liquid during cooking. If you heat fruit and do not add pectin, most fruits will turn into juice rather than jam. Eggs are a colloid. You can change them from liquid to solid by cooking, but you can't change them back again.


A measure of how much of a solid will dissolve?

Solubility is a measure of how much of a solid will dissolve in a given amount of solvent at a specific temperature and pressure. It is often expressed in terms of grams of solute per 100 grams of solvent.


What is fuel that is not a liquid or a solid?

Fuel that is not a liquid or solid can be a gas. Many road vehicles use natural gas or propane but I have not heard of an aircraft that does.Fuel that is not a liquid nor a solid is probably gaseous - like the natural gas we use for our cars.

The general classes of colloids are sols (solid particles dispersed in a liquid), gels (cross-linked networks of solid particles dispersed in a liquid), and emulsions (liquid droplets dispersed in another liquid).

Can you eat yogurt upsidEDOWN own?

Technically, you should be able to, as peristalsis in the oesophagus does not depend on gravity, so you can swallow food upside down. However, I am not sure if yogurt counts as a liquid or a solid. Therefore, in conclusion, if it is a solid, then yes, but if it is a liquid, then probably not.


How can we calculate the density of a irregular solid or a liquid?

You can dip the irregular solid in a water or other suitable liquid. This is how, you can measure the volume of the solid. The mass can be measured by weighing scale. Mass/volume = density. It is easy to measure the mass and volume of the liquid. First measure the mass the container. Then add the liquid to it. You will get the mass of the liquid. Then measure the volume of the liquid. Use the above formula to calculate the density of the liquid.
