The volume of a liquid stays the same no matter what container it is in, only the shape changes.
Yes. Liquids take the shape of a container but not the volume, and gases take the shape and volume of a container.
liquid does have definite volume, but it does not have a definite shape.Only ice (solid) phase has a definite volume and shapeIce( solid state), since solids are the only state of matter that has a definite mass volume and shape
No. Only matter in its solid state has a definite shape and volume. Liquids have a definite volume but no definite shape, and gases have no definite shape or volume.
Yes. A definite shape - which implies a definite volume - is one of the basic properties of a solid.
The volume of a liquid takes the shape of its container, while a solid's volume remains fixed regardless of its container. The volume of a solid is usually measured in cubic units (e.g. cubic meters), whereas liquid volume is typically measured in liters or milliliters. The volume of a liquid can vary with changes in temperature, pressure, or composition, while a solid's volume remains constant under normal conditions.
The volume of a solid depends on the temperature.
You place it in water to see the volume of water it displaces. Fill a large, graduated measuring cylinder to about halfway with water (say to 50mL) Put the irregular solid in, and measure the volume it reads (solid + water). (say it reads 80mL) So the volume of the irregular solid will be: volume(solid+water) - volume(water). For example, the volume of the water was 50mL, and when the solid was added, the volume increased to 80mL. The volume of the solid would be 80mL - 50mL. So it would be 30mL.
Definite shape and volume is a state that defines solid.
Yes, a solid does not occupy less sapce when it is pressed or squeezed. It cannot be compressed. The volume of a solid does not change. A solid has a fixed or definite volume.
Yes you can.You can measure the solid by putting it into a gradruated cylinder.The height of the water shows you how much volume the solid has. fun is at www.qyue.webs.com
The volume of a rectangular solid is calculated by taking the area of the base and multiplying it by the solids height. Another way of saying this is to say length x width x height.
The volume of an irregularly shaped solid can be measured by placing the solid in a known quantity of water in a container with measurement markings. Take the new volume and find the difference between this and the old volume. This is the volume of your irregularly shaped solid.
A solid is matter that has a definite volume and shape that remains constant. The particles in a solid are tightly packed and vibrate in place, giving the solid its fixed shape and volume.
The state of matter is actually to states of matter. Solid and liquid are the states of matter that have a volume,(liquid) and shape(solid).
A solid has a definite shape, and a definite volume.
The volume of the solid remains the same.
