What else can I help you with?
Is physical state expands to fill up whatever container it is in is a solid liquid or gas?
A gas will expand to fill up the container it is in because the particles are free to move and have a lot of kinetic energy. Solids and liquids have more compacted particles and won't expand to fill the container.
A sample of matter completely fills a cylindrical 15.0-liter container. The sample is transferred to a spherical 25.0-liter container which is also completely filled by the sample. Is the sample a liq?
The sample is likely a liquid. Liquids have the ability to take the shape of their container while maintaining a constant volume, which allows them to fill both the cylindrical and spherical containers completely. If the sample were a gas, it would expand to fill the entire volume of the container, regardless of the shape. Thus, the fact that the sample fills both containers suggests it is a liquid.
If A scientist places 25 ml of a yellow substance into a 50 ml container the substance quickly fills the entire container is it a solid liquid or gas?
liquid because the yellow substance takes the form of the container.
Do liquid and gas take up the same space as the container?
Gases will expand or contract to the volume of the container they are in, so gases do. However, liquids have fixed volumes, so they do not. In other words, a liter of water will remain a liter of water whether it is in a bucket or a swimming pool. However, the same quantity of gas may have different volumes depending on the container.
Does a gas completely fill its a container?
Yes, a gas will always fill the container that it is in.
Why doesn't liquid expand to fill a container completely?
There are relatively strong forces between the particles (atoms or molecules), that keep them together.
Why can a liquid expand to take the shape of its container but not expand to fill the container?
It doesn't expand to take the shape of its container, but it flows because the particles can slide past each other, and the bonds are loose, and not completely broken, whereas in gases, the bonds between particles have been broken down, and so they can move apart and fill the container.
Liquids and gases are different from solids because they?
maintain their own shape and do not take the shape of their container.
Does liquid takes up a definite amount of space?
Yes, a liquid does take up a definite amount of space, which is to say that it has a definite volume. A liquid takes the shape of its container but does not expand to fill it completely like a gas would.
Matter phase in which a substance will take on the shape of its container but not expand to fill the containe?
liquid phase
What is the difference of gas and liquid compressed?
Gas is compressible and will expand to fill any container it is put in. Liquid is not compressible and will maintain a fixed volume regardless of the container it is in.
What phase of of matter has its volume determined by its container?
A gas. Gas will expand to fill the available space.
Is physical state expands to fill up whatever container it is in is a solid liquid or gas?
A gas will expand to fill up the container it is in because the particles are free to move and have a lot of kinetic energy. Solids and liquids have more compacted particles and won't expand to fill the container.
Why can't 10ml of liquid fill a 20ml container?
A 10 ML of liquid can't fill a 20 ML container because although liquids do not have a definite shape they have a definite volume.

What causes a liquid to bend and take the shape of its container but not fill it completely?
In a liquid, you have atoms or molecules which are bonded to each other to a sufficient degree that they stay close to each other, so they do not just expand as a gas would, to fill a container, but they are not bonded so strongly as to become a solid, so their relative positions can freely shift, resulting in a shapeless substance that takes the shape of its container.
What doesnt have a fixed shape or volume?
Gases do not have a fixed shape or volume; they expand to completely fill the container they occupy.
