Solids do have definite volume, as it is always the same shape anywhere, even in space, but not the same mass, as 1 pound on earth is a lot less on the moon. Hope this helps a bit.
'''Oops''', there is a slight mistake in the above answer - a very common mistake among students of basic physics. Mass and weight are not the same thing. Mass is the amount of substance an object contains and is the same no matter where the thing is, earth or moon. Weight, on the other hand, is measured by the gravitational pull on the object and changes from one planet to another. Therefore, solids have a definite (fixed) volume '''and''' mass.

What is the phase of matter not having definite volume or definite shape?
Of the three classic phases or states (solid, liquid, gas), gases do not have a defined shape or volume, which is determined by the shape and volume of their containers. A sample will have a defined mass, and the volume into which that mass is confined determines the pressure of the gas.
Is liquid a definite mass?
We're skeptical. We suspect that a supertanker full of oil probably contains more mass than a quart bottle of 10-40 does.
Does gas have mass or volume?
Gas has mass, but it does not have a definite volume because it conforms to the shape and size of its container. The mass of a gas is determined by the number of gas molecules present.
A material can be classified as a liquid if?
A liquid is a matter as it occupies space and has mass.
Does ice have a definite shape and volume?
Yes, ice has a definite shape due to its molecular structure and arrangement in a crystal lattice. It also has a definite volume as it maintains its mass when it freezes and expands into a solid state.
Which have definite mass and volume but no definite shape?
Liquids have a definite mass and volume, but not a shape.
In which state of matter does water have definite shape and volume?
liquid does have definite volume, but it does not have a definite shape.Only ice (solid) phase has a definite volume and shapeIce( solid state), since solids are the only state of matter that has a definite mass volume and shape
Which state of matter has?
Solid, liquid, and gas are the three states of matter. Solids have a fixed shape and volume, liquids have a fixed volume but take the shape of their container, and gases have neither a fixed shape nor volume and fill the container they are in.
What are the characteristics o f solid?
- definite shape - has volume - has mass
What are. Characteristics of a solid?
They occupy space, have mass, have a definite volume and shape
What is the phase of matter not having definite volume or definite shape?
Of the three classic phases or states (solid, liquid, gas), gases do not have a defined shape or volume, which is determined by the shape and volume of their containers. A sample will have a defined mass, and the volume into which that mass is confined determines the pressure of the gas.
Which of the following is not a physical property of a liquid indefinite volume indefinite shape not easily compressed definite mass?
not easily compressed definite mass i think
Is liquid a definite mass?
We're skeptical. We suspect that a supertanker full of oil probably contains more mass than a quart bottle of 10-40 does.
What is something that doesn't have definite shape or volume mass or container?
They all have definite shape ,volume ,and definite mass. A solid is a figure something that doesn't change when you move it like if you move a table out of a classroom it wouldn't. A liquid takes the place of its container.
What is the density of an aluminum cylinder?
The density of aluminum is approximately 2.7 g/cm^3. To calculate the density of an aluminum cylinder, you would need to know its mass and volume, and then divide the mass by the volume to get the density.
Is a chewed bubble gum a solid?
yes it is. The definition of a solid is a substance with a definite mass and volume and shape. A liquid has a definite mass and volume, but changes shape to fit that of it's container. A gas has a definite mass, but no definite shape or volume. While chewed bubble gum is a little amorphous, it is technically a solid because, while it does change shape a little, it does not continue to stretch itsef thin until it has reached the edges of it's container (i.e. the room you are in or the furthest reaches of your mouth). Also, the chewed gum has a definite shape, it is an ameboid shape, but it is a shape nontheless.
Does liquid have definite mass?
Yes, liquid has a definite mass. Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object, and liquids, like all forms of matter, have mass. The mass of a liquid is determined by the density of the liquid and the volume of the liquid. The mass of a liquid can be measured using a balance or a scale.
