What state of matter has a definite shape but not a definite volume?
There is no such state of matter. Solid has a definite shape and volume, liquid has a definite volume but not a definite shape, gases have neither a definite shape nor a definite volume.
Compare solids liquids and gases in terms of their shapes and volumes?
Solids have a definite shape and volume. Liquids have a definite volume, but no definite shape - they take the shape of their container. Gases have no definite volume and no definite shape - they expand to fill their entire container.
What is the difference between solid liquid and gases in shape?
Solids are, well, solid, and have a definite shape. Liquids do not have a definite shape (but do have a definite volume), and neither do gasses (but they don't have a definite volume).
What is a property of both the solid state and the liquid state?
Both gases and liquids have an indefinite shape - they will take the shape of the container they are held in. The difference between gases and liquids is that liquids have a definite volume while a gas does not.
State of matter with no definite shape but with definite volume?
No state of matter corresponds to this. Solids are the only state with definite shape, but they have a definite volume too.
What does not have a definite shape or a volume?
A gas does not have a definite shape or volume.
What has definite volume and shape?
Solids have definite shape and definite volume. Liquids have not definite shape but have definite volume. Gases have neither definite shape not definite volume.
Do gases have definite shape or volume?
No. They neither have definite shape nor definite volume.
What have a definite volume?
Gases.
A liquid has a definite volume and what?
A liquid has a definite volume but not a definite shape. Solids have a definite volume and shape while gases have none of these properties.
How can volume be use to separate solids and gases?
Solids have a definite volume and gases have a variable volume
What do solids liquids and gases have that are different?
Structure. Solids have definite shape and definite volume. Liquids have definite volume but indefinite shape. Gases have both indefinite shape and indefinite volume.
What doesn't have definite volume?
Gases.
What doesn't have a definite volume?
Gases.
Does carbon dioxide have definite volume?
No. All gases do not have a definite volume when in gas state.
What state of matter has a definite shape but not a definite volume?
There is no such state of matter. Solid has a definite shape and volume, liquid has a definite volume but not a definite shape, gases have neither a definite shape nor a definite volume.
A description of gases and liquids are?
Gases have neither a definite shape nor a definite volume. Liquids do not have a definite shape, but they DO have a definite volume. Gases have no or little intermolecular forces holding them together, whereas liquids do have substantial intermolecular forces.
