Even though a liquid can change shape to fit in to a square, circular, rectagular or evenÊaÊflatÊcontainer, Liquid still retains its volume. Liquids always have a definate volume but they can always change shape.
Yes, water is a liquid and any given amount of liquid will contain the same volume. Although does not keep its definition shape. Meinert
These are the three common states of matter. A liquid has a definite volume but takes the shape of its container, a solid has both definite shape and volume, and a gas has neither definite shape nor volume.
WATER has no definite shape but has definite volume.
The state of matter that maintains both shape and volume when placed in a different container is a solid. Solids have particles that are tightly packed together, giving them a fixed shape and volume.
The state of matter that has definite volume, but indefinite shape is the liquid state. A solid constantly has the same shape and volume. A wooden block (solid) will not change its shape or volume unless it is melted, but that would involve changing it from solid to liquid. A liquid constantly has the same volume, but its shape changes. Find a cylindrical container that has the same volume as a rectangular container. Fill the cylindrical container with water. Then, pour the water to the rectangular container. The shape of the water changed from cylindrical to rectangular and the volume remained the same, unless some water was dropped in the process. A gas has changing shape and volume. Find a small container full of a colored gas. Open in it inside a room. The gas will spread all over the room. Its volume changed from the volume of the container to the size of the room. Its shape has changed from the shape of the container to the shape of the room.
Water vapour does not have definite shape and does not have definite volume.
WATER has no definite shape but has definite volume.
WATER has no definite shape but has definite volume.
WATER has no definite shape but has definite volume.
Water (as a liquid) has a definite volume but no shape; a gas hasn't a definite volume or shape.
The shape and volume of water are determined by the container it is in. Water takes the shape of its container due to its ability to adapt to its surroundings and fill the space available. Its volume is determined by the amount of water molecules present within the container.

The answer is simply no.
To find the volume of an irregular shape it is immersed in water and the volume of water displaced is the volume of the shape.A can with a hole high in the side can be filled until the water is exactly at the hole ie over filled and no more water is running out.A measuring container is positioned to catch any overflow of water.The object is immersed in the can and the water is caught in the measuring device.The volume of water collected = the volume of the object.In science cans are made with a spout on one side for this purpose.
