No. There are many substance other than water that are liquid at room temperature. A few example include Mercury, ethanol (beverage alcohol), and acetone. Additionally, some substances such as propane and butane, which are normally gasses, can be stored as liquids under pressure.

Law of lower and upper meniscus levels in determining liquid solution?

In measuring liquids using graduated cylinder, there are two things to consider. 1.) CLEAR LIQUID and 2.) COLORED LIQUID (as we may say) In identifying the volume of CLEAR LIQUID (e.g. plain water, oil, alcohol, etc.), THE LOWER MENISCUS is read. For the COLORED LIQUID (e.g. soy sauce, ketchup, etc. ) the upper meniscus is get, since there is only one meniscus there.. (meaning there is no upper & lower meniscus.)


What is special about Mercury the element?

Mercury is the only metal that remains in a liquid state at room temperature. It is also highly dense and has a high surface tension, allowing it to form distinctive meniscus shapes in containers. However, it is toxic and poses environmental risks if not handled and disposed of properly.


Limitations of measuring with graduated cylinder?

That method only works if the substance being measured is in liquid form. Also, the only property of the substance that can be measured is its volume ... the graduated cylinder cannot measure its mass, temperature, cost, density, etc.


Which matter remains liquid at room temperature?

Mercury is the only metal that remains liquid at room temperature.


What happens when you put ice cubes into liquid water?

This is called Phase Change.Water is one of the few matters that can become a liquid, solid, and gas. If you freeze water, which is in a liquid state, it changes into a solid state. If you heat the liquid, you see the liquid escaping in the form of bubbles and changing into a gaseous state. These states of matter are only the physical properties. There is no change in its chemical composition. Ice and water vapor continue to be water in different forms or states.

What laboratory apparatus does not have a meniscus?

A meniscus it the curve of a liquid when it adheres to the side of its container. Only glassware used for measuring volumes of liquids have a meniscus. The scale.

How do you use a graduate?

A meniscus is the curvature of the surface of the water. Water "sticks" to the walls of the graduated cylinder, but only on the sides and not the middle, so you measure water from the meniscus

What state forms when a vapor condences?

Vapor condenses to form liquid. Go to the bathroom and turn on the shower but only the hot water. You'll notice that there's steam/water vapor. Look at your mirror and watch as liquid water forms.


Which is the only liquid which is measured from an upper miniscus?

Mercury is the only liquid that is commonly measured using the upper meniscus. This is due to its unique properties, such as high density and low surface tension, that cause it to form a convex meniscus rather than a concave one like most other liquids.


What forces create the meniscus you see at the top of a liquid when you measure it?

The meniscus is created by adhesive forces between the glass and the water. THis means that the water water molecules are attracted to the glass so they can creep up the glass to a small degree. The water molecules are also attracted to each other through hydrogen bonding. These are called cohesive forces and they allows the water that creeps up the glass to bring other water molecules with them. The cohesive forces and adhesive forces can only resist gravity to a certain degree so in the middle the liquid curves downward.


What planet has 3 forms of water?

Earth is the only known planet in our solar system to have water in all three forms - solid, liquid, and gas - due to its unique temperatures and atmospheric conditions.


The only planet in which water exists naturally as a solid and liquid and gas is?

Earth is the only planet in our solar system where water exists naturally in solid, liquid, and gas states. This is due to its unique distance from the sun and its moderate temperatures that allow for such diverse forms of water.


How many planets have liquid water on them?

Scientists have found evidence of liquid water on Mars, Europa (a moon of Jupiter), Enceladus (a moon of Saturn), and possibly Ganymede (another moon of Jupiter). These are the known bodies in our solar system with liquid water.


Why is earth the only planet in the solar system that is mostly water?

Earth lies in the Godlilocks region of our Sun. The perfect conditions for water to exist in 3 forms: Ice, Liquid and Water vapour.
