- Matter can exist in one of three main states: solid, liquid, or gas.
- Solid matter is composed of tightly packed particles. A solid will retain its shape; the particles are not free to move around.
- Liquid matter is made of more loosely packed particles. It will take the shape of its container. Particles can move about within a liquid, but they are packed densely enough that volume is maintained.
- Gaseous matter is composed of particles packed so loosely that it has neither a defined shape nor a defined volume. A gas can be compressed.
What else can I help you with?
How do you determine the density of each 50 mL liquid container?
To determine the density of each 50 mL liquid container, you would first weigh the empty container. Next, fill the container with the liquid and weigh it again. The difference in weight between the filled and empty container can be used to calculate the density by dividing the weight of the liquid by the volume of the container.
Does a liquid have an indefinite volume?
The meaning of indefinite volume is that the sample would expand to fill the entire container. Gases are the only thing to do this.
How do you measure liquid volume?
You can use some type of calibrated container: a graduated cylinder or beaker, generally. Another method would be to measure the mass of the liquid (any container will do, after you have tared the container) and divide by the density of the liquid (if you know it). These work for any liquid as long as it doesn't evaporate quickly. Also, the volume of a liquid may depend on temperature, so the volume at zero Celsius will be different from the volume at 98 Celsius, for example.
How much liquid was left in each container?
To determine how much liquid was left in each container, you would need specific measurements or observations of the containers before and after liquid was removed. This could involve checking the volume marked on each container or using a measuring device to assess the remaining liquid. Without that information, it's impossible to accurately state the amount left in each container.
What method would you use to find the density of a volatile liquid?
Put a container of known volume on a scale, and tare it. Then fill the container exactly to the full mark with the liquid, and record the weight. Divide the weight by the volume to get the density. The fact that it is volatile brings several considerations. If it is so volatile that some has evaporated by the time you weigh it, then it may be necessary to cap the container. Be sure to tare with the container and cap. Also, if it is a toxic volatile liquid, you may need to work in a fume hood.
Which of the 3 states would be most affected by volume of its container?
The gas state. A gas takes up the volume of the container in which it is placed.
What type of tool would you use to find the volume of a liquid?
Measure the container itself, or measure the mass of the liquid and the container and find the density of that certain liquid has and isolate for the volume.
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 is matter that has a definite volume but takes the shape of its container?
A liquid. A gas has no definite volume, as it's volume is whatever the volume of the container it is in happens to be. A solid, by it's nature of being solid, will not take on the shape of it's 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).
How do you determine the density of each 50 mL liquid container?
To determine the density of each 50 mL liquid container, you would first weigh the empty container. Next, fill the container with the liquid and weigh it again. The difference in weight between the filled and empty container can be used to calculate the density by dividing the weight of the liquid by the volume of the container.
What would you use to measure an irregular objects volume?
I would place it in a container full of liquid after measuring the liquid. I would measure the amount of liquid displaced by the object. That amount is equal to the volume of the irregular object if it is fully submerged in the liquid.
What would you use to measure volume of an irregular object?
I would place it in a container full of liquid after measuring the liquid. I would measure the amount of liquid displaced by the object. That amount is equal to the volume of the irregular object if it is fully submerged in the liquid.
How would pressure be affected by an increase in the volume of the container?
All else being equal the pressure would fall
Does a liquid have an indefinite volume?
The meaning of indefinite volume is that the sample would expand to fill the entire container. Gases are the only thing to do this.
What matter of state always takes the volume of the container?
Gases.If thee is as much liquid as the container fits, then liquids would work too.
What takes shape of a container and has no definite volume?
A gas takes the shape of its container and has no definite volume, as it expands to fill the available space.
