What is a substance that does not have shape or volume but can expand and take up space?
A gas is a substance that does not have a fixed shape or volume. It can expand to fill the space available to it.
What is a volume occupied by one molecule of water?
The volume occupied by one molecule of water is approximately 0.03 nm^3. This is based on the average volume occupied by a water molecule, which is about 3 Å on each side.
Do gases have a definite volume and shape?
No definite shape and no definite volume. The volume of a gas is a function of the pressure. Increase pressure and the volume will drop. Gasses will expand to fill all the available volume if left to their own device, if no exterior pressure is applied.
What state of matter can expand or contract depending on the volume of its container?
A gas can expand or contract depending on the volume of its container. Gases have no fixed shape or volume, and they fill the space available to them. When the volume of the container increases, the gas molecules spread out and the gas expands. Conversely, when the volume decreases, the gas molecules are compressed, causing the gas to contract.
Which state would the substance be if it had no fixed volume?
The substance would be in a gaseous state if it had no fixed volume. Gases have no fixed shape or volume and can expand to fill the container they are in.
Does steam have definite volume?
No. Steam is a gas, thus volume is a variable. (It is often referred to as a vapor since it is usually near its liquid condition.)
Is compress the opposite of expand?
The word 'compress' is the opposite of 'expand'.
What is the best synonym for expand in gases have a tendency to expand?
The best synonym for "expand" in this context would be "increase in volume."
What is a substance that does not have shape or volume but can expand and take up space?
A gas is a substance that does not have a fixed shape or volume. It can expand to fill the space available to it.
What is a volume occupied by one molecule of water?
The volume occupied by one molecule of water is approximately 0.03 nm^3. This is based on the average volume occupied by a water molecule, which is about 3 Å on each side.
Do gases keep the same volume?
Usually not. They can easily expand into a larger volume, or be compressed into a smaller volume.
What is the average volume of a water molecule?
The average volume of a water molecule is about 3.4 x 10-29 cubic meters.
What is the difference between the standard volume and gross volume?
Gross volume is the volume at actual condition whereas standard volume is at standard Pressure/Temperature condition.
Gases have a tendency to expand. what's the best synonym for expand?
Collide
What happens to the volume of a balloon if exposed to hot air?
The air will expand, increasing the volume
What phase of of matter has its volume determined by its container?
A gas. Gas will expand to fill the available space.
What happens to the volume of solids liquids and gasses as they warm and cool?
As solids are warmed, they expand and their volume increases. Conversely, as solids cool, they contract and their volume decreases. For liquids, warming causes expansion and an increase in volume, while cooling results in contraction and a decrease in volume. Gases behave differently as they expand when warmed and contract when cooled, with volume being directly proportional to temperature.
