What else can I help you with?
Unlike solids and liquids a gas will?
take the shape and volume of its container, as the gas particles are free to move and spread out to fill the available space. This is due to the lower intermolecular forces between gas particles compared to solids and liquids.
What propertys do solids and liquids not share?
Solids have a definite shape and volume, while liquids have a definite volume but take the shape of their container. Liquids can flow and take the shape of the container they are in, unlike solids which have a fixed shape.
What do gases and liquids have in common that is not true for solids?
They both expand when heated. They both can be compressed to take up less space. They are both fluids, that is, they flow (particles move freely around one another) and they take the shape of their container.
What are the non examples of gas?
Non-examples of gases include solids (e.g. rocks, wood) and liquids (e.g. water, oil). It is important to note that gases do not have a fixed shape or volume, unlike solids and liquids.
Are pebbles a solid liquid or gas?
Pebbles are solid.
Which properties are present in liquid and gas but not in solid?
Fluidity and compressibility are properties present in liquids and gases but not in solids. Liquids and gases can flow and take the shape of their container, unlike solids which have a fixed shape. Gases can be compressed under pressure, unlike solids which have a fixed volume.
What physical characteristic does not apply to gas?
One physical characteristic that does not apply to gases is a definite shape. Unlike solids and liquids, gases do not have a fixed shape; they take the shape of their container. Additionally, gases have low density compared to solids and liquids, and they can be easily compressed, which is another characteristic that distinguishes them from other states of matter.
Why gases are compressible?
Gases are compressible because their molecules bounce off of each other instead of sticking together. The molecules of solids and liquids stick together instead of moving freely.
Unlike solids and liquids a gas will?
take the shape and volume of its container, as the gas particles are free to move and spread out to fill the available space. This is due to the lower intermolecular forces between gas particles compared to solids and liquids.
What are some examples of how gases are different from liquids and solids?
I can only tell you that gases are does not have a difinite shape and volume . E.g air / nitrogen / carbon dioxide / water vapour / . . .
What propertys do solids and liquids not share?
Solids have a definite shape and volume, while liquids have a definite volume but take the shape of their container. Liquids can flow and take the shape of the container they are in, unlike solids which have a fixed shape.
What Can not be compressed and is a definite shape?
A solid object cannot be compressed and has a definite shape. In solids, the particles are closely packed together, allowing them to maintain a fixed volume and shape under normal conditions. Examples include metals, wood, and ice. Unlike gases and liquids, solids resist changes in shape and volume when subjected to pressure.
How are gasses and liquids similar in shape and volume?
ANSWER unlike solids, both liquids and gases can change their shape to fit the container in which they are held. however, gases can also change volume unlike liquids.
Why do liquids and solids expand with temperature and not compressible like a gas?
Most solids and liquids expand with temperature (ice is an exception - it contracts with increased temperature) because there is more energy in the particles, and therefore they move faster and take up more space. They are not compressible, however, because the particles in solids and liquids are touching each other, and so have a specific volume, unlike gases.
Why are liquids sometimes more practical to use in a hydraulic system than gases?
Because liquids cannot be easily compressed into a smaller space.
What do gases and liquids have in common that is not true for solids?
They both expand when heated. They both can be compressed to take up less space. They are both fluids, that is, they flow (particles move freely around one another) and they take the shape of their container.
Why do fluids liquids and gases flow?
because, unlike solids, they can't sustain shearing stress
