YES. that's one of the properties of being a liquid.
A liquid has a definite volume but an indefinite shape. It takes the shape of its container.
A liquid is defined as something that has a constant volume but conforms to the shape of its container. This is different from a gas which has variable volume and conforms to the shape of its container. It is also different from a solid which has a constant volume and does not change to fit the shape of its container.
solid
Matter that takes both the shape and volume of its container is a gas. A solid is characterized by having a definite shape and definite volume.
-- Gases change their shape and volume to match the container they're in. -- Liquids change their shape but not their volume. -- Solids don't change anything. It doesn't matter if they're in a glass jar, a rubber balloon, or a paper bag. ===== A Gas
A substance that keeps the same volume but takes the shape of its container is known as a liquid. Liquids have a fixed volume but can move and adjust to the shape of the container they are in.
The state of matter that keeps the same volume but changes shape when it changes container is a liquid. Liquids do not have a fixed shape but take the shape of their container due to their ability to flow and fill the container.
at room temperature, water is considered a liquid because it has a definite volume (it does not expand to fill its container like a gas) but not a definite shape (it takes the shape of its container, as opposed to a solid which keeps its shape regardless of the container it is in).
Yes. A liquid has a definite shape and when a liquid is poured into a container, the liquid takes on the shape of the container.
A liquid. A gas has no definite volume, as it's volume is whatever the volume of the container it is in happens to be. A solid, by it's nature of being solid, will not take on the shape of it's container.
Only liquid. Gas never has a definite volume. Both will always take the shape of their container though.A liquid
Gas will always keep expanding until it fills the entire shape and volume of whatever container you put it in. Liquid won't do that. It just lays there in the bottom. It takes the shape of the container, but keeps the same volume it had when you poured it in there.
A liquid has a definite volume but an indefinite shape. It takes the shape of its container.
Matter in the liquid state can take the shape of a container. However, a liquid has a definite volume. On the other hand, a gas can do both, that is take the shape and volume or size of a container.
Liquid. You can measure the exact volume of a liquid but you can put it into containers that changes the shape of the liquid.
