What happens to the volume of a liquid when it is poured into a container with a different shape?

Liquids take on the shape of any container they are placed in. If the volume of the container is less than the total volume of the liquid, them the difference in quantity will overflow the top of the container.

What happens to the volume of a liquid when it is poured from a small container into a large container?
The volume of an object is determined by the product of the surface area and the height of the object. Hence if the big container has a bigger height then the volume would certainly be greater. However, when talking about the volume of the liquid, it will be constant. This is because, although the height of the liquid will be reduced by putting it into a bigger container, the surface area is increased. Therefore, it will be constant. ! xx
What happens when liquid nitrogen is poured on balloon?
Liquid nitrogen has a low temperature, and that obviously decreases the volume of the air inside the balloon. The balloon shrinks
What happens when a liquid is poured into a volumetric flask into a beaker?
It retains its original volume, but its shape is changed.
How do liquids take shape of the container they are poured into?
The different layers are formed because the two liquids are not compatible, or do not mix well. The order of the layers is always from the densest liquid on the bottom to the least dense liquid on top. For example, oil and water, water is denser so it sinks to the bottom and the oil floats. Liquids may form layers whether or not they are of equal volume.
What type of substance can be poured and takes the shape of its container?
"liquids"
What does liquid take the shape of?
Liquids take the shape of their container.
Does a liquid have a definite shape and volume at room temperature?
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 fluid is?
A fluid is any gas or liquid that flows, can be poured, and takes the shape of its container.
Does orange juice change volume when poured into a different container?
Orange juice does not change volume when it is poured into a different container. Volume will change if the juice undergoes a process such as concentration.

What does this means that the liquid didn't have enough volume to fill their container?
perhaps you drank some before you poured it in.
What is decanting?
'''''Decantation''''' is a fast method for separating a mixture of a liquid and a heavier solid. In this process , first the solid impurities are allowed to sediment at the bottom of the container. Then, the pure liquid is poured out carefully from the container into another container. The precipitate or solid is left behind at the bottom of the container.
What is the volume formula for liquid?
Depending on the shape of the container for the liquid, you can find the volume different ways. If the container is a cube, the volume is (base * Width * height). if the container is a cylinder, the volume is (PI * Radius2 * height). The answer you would get from these equations is expressed in units cubed (example: cm3).
What is the shape of a liquid?
A liquid takes the shape of any solid that it is contained within. For example water within a square container will appear square, but water within a triangular container will appear triangular.
What is the diameter if you pour 3392.92 of liquid into 30 cups?
The question cannot be answered. Is it about the diameter of the container from which the liquid is poured or of the cups? Is the shape cylindrical (and if so, how tall?) or is it spherical?
Water is polar and oil is nonpolar. What happens when the two liquids are poured into the same container?
The liquids do not mix. They are said to be immiscible.
Does mass of liquid change when poured into another container?
No, mass is a conservative property. Does my shoe weigh the same in a flower pot as in a microwave? Of course it does!
