Solids have a set volume.
Liquids have a set volume.
Gases do not have a set volume.
Why?
Solids are solids. They don't move. They're in a 'frozen state' as is.
Liquids 'mold' to the shape of their container and they stay there.
Gases are free to go anywhere. Always moving and 'flying.'
What else can I help you with?
What do Solids liquids and gases have different?
Solids have a definite shape and volume, while liquids have a definite volume but take the shape of their container. Gases have neither a definite shape nor volume and expand to fill their container.
What has definite volume and shape?
Solids have definite shape and definite volume. Liquids have not definite shape but have definite volume. Gases have neither definite shape not definite volume.
Has no definite shape solid liquid or gas?
Only solids have a definite shape. Neither liquids nor gases have a definite shape.Only solids have a definite shape. Neither liquids nor gases have a definite shape.Only solids have a definite shape. Neither liquids nor gases have a definite shape.Only solids have a definite shape. Neither liquids nor gases have a definite shape.
Compare solids liquids and gases in terms of their shapes and volumes?
Solids have a definite shape and volume. Liquids have a definite volume, but no definite shape - they take the shape of their container. Gases have no definite volume and no definite shape - they expand to fill their entire container.
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 are the three different types of matter?
The three different types of matter are solids, liquids, and gases. Solids have a definite shape and volume, liquids have a definite volume but take the shape of their container, and gases have neither a definite shape nor volume and expand to fill their container.
What is the opposite of definite in volume?
The opposite of definite in volume (solids and liquids) would be indefinite in volume, as in gases, which can vary in volume for a given mass (pressure).
How are solids liquids gases differnent from each other?
Solids have a fixed shape and volume, liquids have a fixed volume but take the shape of their container, and gases have neither a fixed shape nor volume and expand to fill their container. The particles in solids are tightly packed, in liquids they are loosely packed, and in gases they are far apart. Additionally, solids have the strongest intermolecular forces, followed by liquids, then gases.
Compare solids liquids and gases in terms of their shapes and volumes.?
Solids have a definite shape and volume. Liquids have a definite volume, but no definite shape - they take the shape of their container. Gases have no definite volume and no definite shape - they expand to fill their entire container.
Two states of matter that occupy a definite volume?
Liquids and solids are the states of matter that occupy a definite volume. Gases have neither a definite volume nor shape.
What do solids liquids and gases have that are different?
Solids have a fixed shape and volume, with particles that are closely packed and vibrate in place. Liquids have a fixed volume but take the shape of their container, with particles that are close together but can move past each other. Gases have no fixed shape or volume, with particles that are far apart and move freely.
Do not have a definite shape but they have a definite volume?
WATER has no definite shape but has definite volume.
