They don't. Some liquids expand when they become solid and others shrink, while some do maintain the same volume.
To check density of any liquid , measure liquid & water in same quantity at same temperature & divide liquid weight by weight of water which gives density of liquid at that temperature.Exa. If you want to measure density of alcohol , take it in pre-weighted 10 ml cylinder & weight by using any suitable balance ( like mettller balance) note the reading as A. after that weight 10 ml water in same cylinder after rinsing & measure the weight as reading B. To get the actual weight of liquid & water subtract the empty & dry cylinder's weight-. Now calculated as under-Density of liquid= A-C/ B-C.By- S.Joshi
Liquids and solids are same in the way that they are made out of the same atoms, just those atoms are being set in a different environment and temperature.
Due to the constant motion of the particles in a liquid, the particles could theoretically keep moving so that the liquid never takes a form. But putting the liquid into a container effectively throws a huge wall in front of the moving particles that they cannot get past. the particles hit the sides of the container and change direction. The liquid then remains in that shape despite the fact that its particles are still moving (hitting the sides of the container). Because a liquid has stronger intermolecular forces than gases, the liquid stays in liquid form and does not just evaporate once it is put into a container and its particles hit an obstacle.
This question doesn't make sense on it's own, it needs more context to actually be answered.
A liquid can be poured.A liquid will take the shape of its container.The molecules are quite free to move.Hope this helps!
No, not all solids necessarily have less volume than the same mass of liquid. The relationship between volume and mass depends on the density of the substance. Some solids may be more dense than liquids, resulting in a smaller volume for the same mass.
Liquids, like solids have a definite volume. While liquids don't have a definite shape, they can take the shape of a container which can be measured the same way as with solids.
This is a liquid. Note that the volume of a liquid will change a bit with temperature, but remains relatively the same. Also note that science teachers are fond of saying that a liquid takes the shape of its container, which is pretty much the same as saying it has no fixed shape.
A solid is matter with a definite shape and volume. A liquid is matter that has a definite volume but no definite shape. Why? Here is an example. When you pour a liquid from one container to another, the liquid takes the shape of the container. The volume of the liquid is the same. The properties that solids and liquids share are that they both have definite volume. Source- Mrs. Kristen Eichinger, Mrs. Cindy Surplus and my Harcourt Science book
A solid has a definite volume because the molecules are tightly packed and whether it is an ice cube and turns into a liquid by melting it still is the same amount unless you are adding on to it.
not nessaserily a 1x8x8 rectangle has the same volume as a 4x4x4 cube
No state of matter corresponds to this. Solids are the only state with definite shape, but they have a definite volume too.
For gas and liquid, it took shape of what ever contain them. For solid, it took original shape of what ever contain them before freezing to solid or mold them to solid. The later shape of solid is due to what it suffer over time to shape it to existing shape.
the volume of them all stay the same
Their volume increases - that is to say, the solids expand. However, their mass stays the same.
Yes, the particles remain the same size when a material undergoes changes of state. The change in volume that occurs when material is heated or cooled is caused by a change in the distance between the particles
