Of course. The gas always fills the container it's in,

no matter how large or small the volume is.

Changes shape and volume to fit container?

-- 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


What properties do only gases have?

Gases have the property of indefinite shape and volume, as they expand to fill any container. They also have low density compared to liquids and solids. Gases can be compressed and expand easily when heated.


What changes shape and volume when you change containers?

Gases do that.


Why can gases change volume?

Gases can change volume because their particles are not held together tightly like in solids or liquids. The particles in a gas are free to move around and spread out to fill the available space, so when the pressure or temperature changes, the volume of the gas can adjust accordingly.


Why do gases change in volume most easily?

Gases can change in volume most easily because the particles in gas are spread out and have weak intermolecular forces. This allows them to move freely and occupy the entire volume of the container they are in. When pressure changes or temperature varies, gas particles can move further apart or closer together, resulting in volume changes.


Do gases have a definite volume?

no


Fixed volume but match their container?

If a fixed volume of gas is placed in a container, it will expand or contract to match the volume of the container. This is because gases have the ability to fill the entire volume of their container, assuming no other forces are applied. As the container size changes, the gas molecules will adjust by moving closer together or farther apart to occupy the new volume.


Do gases keep the same volume?

Usually not. They can easily expand into a larger volume, or be compressed into a smaller volume.


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.


What property easily changes in gases but does not easily change in solids?

shape and volume


Can gasses flow?

Gases flow anywhere they want to. This is one of the special properties of gases. They do NOT have a definite volume or shape. They take the shape of their container and fill the volume of that container.


Do Gases have a definite shape and volume true or false?

False. Gases in a container take the shape of the container. The volume of a gas increases with temperature and inversely with pressure, except when in a closed container where volume remains the same as the volume of the container and the temperature and pressure will vary.
