Solid and liquid water do have things that are in common. Both a solid and a liquid are considered matter, just in a different state. Solid and liquids also take up a fixed volume of space.

How are liquid mass and liquid volume alike?

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.


Which generally expands more for the same increase in temperature solids or liquids?

Generally, liquids expand more than solids for the same increase in temperature. This is because the molecular structure of liquids allows for greater movement and spacing between molecules compared to the more rigid structure of solids. As a result, liquids typically experience a larger increase in volume when heated. However, the specific expansion can vary depending on the material.


What can you do with a liquid that you cannot do with a solid?

With a liquid, you can easily change its shape to fill the container it occupies, allowing it to take on various forms. Liquids can flow and move freely, enabling them to mix with other liquids or substances, which is not possible with solids. Additionally, liquids can exert pressure in all directions, a characteristic that is not applicable to solids in the same way.


Is the best definition of a diatomic molecule?

A diatomic molecule is defined as a molecule composed of two atoms, which can be of the same or different chemical elements. Common examples include oxygen (O₂) and nitrogen (N₂), where the atoms are of the same element, and hydrogen chloride (HCl), where the atoms are of different elements. These molecules can exist as gases, liquids, or solids, depending on temperature and pressure.


Do solids and liquids change in size when taking the shape of its container?

Solids do not change in size when taking the shape of their container because their particles are tightly packed and cannot easily move. Liquids, on the other hand, do not change in size but can take the shape of its container because their particles can move past each other.

Are all solids the same?

No, not all solids are the same. For example. each solid has a different temperature in which it melts. Heat, water, and coldness are factors in solids.


What are the properties of Solids, Liquids, and Gas?

Has the same shape


How are liquids and solids the same?

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.


How are solids liquids and gasses the same?

There the same because there the three common states of matter.


Do solids and liquids diffuse at the same rate?

No. The particles in the solids have different mass as the particles in the liqiuds, so they diffuse at the different rate. but if their particles have the same rate, they will diffuse at the same rate.


What is a mixture of liquids or solids dissolved into liquids?

It is called a solution. The same general word used for this kind of answer to your question.


How do sound travels through gas?

Compression waves (same as for solids & liquids).


Why are solids USUALLY more dense liquids and gases?

Solids are usually more dense because solids have a smaller volume than liquids or gases, so the same amount of mass is in a smaller volume, making the density greater.
