What matter does not take the shape of a container?
Gas is a form of matter that does not take the shape of the container it is in. Instead, it expands to fill the space it is in, making it the only type of matter that does not have a fixed shape.
Is cardon dioxide matter?
A matter is a "thing" that has mass and occupies space so theoretically carbon oxide is mattar as CO2 has mass (you can measure the weight) and occupies space (for example you blow in a balloon and it expands)
Which phase of the matter has no definite volume and occupies all the space available to it?
The gas phase of matter has no definite volume and fills the entire space available to it. Gas particles move freely and are not confined by a specific shape or volume.
Compared to most substances water is unusual because when it goes from a liquid to a solid state it?
expands instead of contracts. This is due to water molecules forming a crystalline structure when freezing, creating a network that takes up more space than its liquid form. This unique behavior is why ice floats on water.
Is the density of water dependent on temperature?
Yes, the density of water changes with temperature. As water is heated, it becomes less dense and expands, causing it to take up more space. Conversely, as water is cooled, it becomes more dense and contracts, taking up less space.
Why does gas have a definite mass?
It doesn't, it expands and contracts in the space it has.
How does a liquid thermometer measure temperature?
The alcohol or mercury in a thermometer expands or contracts very precisely according to heat or cold.
What type of matter expands to fill an available space?
Gases are able to expand to fill any available space because their particles are in constant, random motion and have enough kinetic energy to overcome the forces of attraction between them.
Is matter being transformed into space by black holes?
No, when the big bang happend dark matter and dark energy came. Dark matter expands space even as we speak.
Why concrete roads have gaps?
because it expands and contracts depending on the temperature..the gaps allow the concrete some space to expand so that it will not crack..
What liquid expands instead of contracts when frozen?
Water is a liquid that expands when it freezes. This is due to the unique structure of water molecules, causing them to form a crystalline lattice when frozen, which takes up more space than liquid water.
What matter does not take the shape of a container?
Gas is a form of matter that does not take the shape of the container it is in. Instead, it expands to fill the space it is in, making it the only type of matter that does not have a fixed shape.
What changes takes place in the liquid inside a thermometer when the thermometer is placed into something hot?
The liquid in thermometers expands when temperature increases (and contracts when temperature decreases). When it expands, the only place for it to expand 'to' is up the thermometer (into the empty space above it).
What was the method of achieving warp speed in Star Trek?
The method for achieving warp speed in Star Trek is to warp the space around the vessel and leave the vessel in a pocket of normal space. It contracts space time in front of the vessel and expands the space time behind it.
What theory states that the universe started as a ball of matter which expands and still expanding?
No such cosmological model exists. What you relate e is one description of Big Bang Cosmology (BBC), but that description is WRONG. BBC does NOT postulate that matter is expanding from a small, dense blob into empty space; rather, it describes a Universe in which SPACE ITSELF is growing at a (more or less) steady rate. Matter density is not decreasing in the way that ink density decreases as it expands into a large container of liquid; rather, the density of matter is decreasing because space is expanding as the amount of matter remains the same. Also, space is not expanding into anything, like an exploded material expands into the space around it. Space is just expanding, period. It is difficult to visualize, but the math works out just fine.
What is the volume for the three states of matter?
The volume of a solid is fixed and maintains a specific shape. The volume of a liquid is determined by its container but it takes the shape of the container. The volume of a gas is not fixed and expands to fill the available space.
What happens to the thoracic cavity during inhalation?
During inhalation, the thoracic cavity expands as the diaphragm contracts and the rib cage moves up and out. This creates more space for the lungs to expand and fill with air.
