The basic properties of any liquid are that it has a definite volume, it takes the shape of its container, it is not compressible and its elements and molecules are not in fixed positions.

Liquids, in general, show expansion when they are heated.

Liquids also, in general, will contract when they are cooled.

Unlike solids, two liquids will mix together and diffuse into each other to make a new type of liquid.

A liquid will turn into a gas or a solid, depending upon the forces exerted on it. A liquid heated to a high enough temperature will vaporize and turn into a gas. A liquid cooled far enough will solidify.

Identify three physical properties of water and two physical changes it can undergo?

Physical properties of water include being a colorless liquid, having a high surface tension, and a high specific heat capacity. Physical changes water can undergo include changing from a liquid to a solid (freezing) and changing from a liquid to a gas (evaporation).


Can a liquid crystal display be called a state of matter?

Liquid crystalline state is a transtion phase between solid and liquid. It can be called a state of matter - it has its unique physical properties (anistropy of physical properties), which makes it different from solids or liquids.


List three physical properties?

If you actually mean the three states of matter, then your answer is liquid, solid, and gas. Plasmas and Bose-Einstein condensates are two other states of matter, extreme heat and extreme cold respectively, but you probably do not need to worry about those.If you actually mean physical properties, then your answer is probably based off of a test or worksheet or something like that for school, because there are way more then just three physical properties.
