No, volume is dependent on things such a temperature and pressure. Most things contract (have a smaller volume) when they are cold and expand (have a larger volume) when they are hot. Also, if you apply pressure to a solid or a gas, you may decrease the volume. This is what happens when you put air in your tires - at some point the tire cannot expand, so you have to use pressure to force more air into the same volume.
If you were to dive down to the deepest part of the ocean, the pressure from all that water on top of you would crush you, and your volume would decrease.

What is a kind of matter with a volume and a shape that both stay the same?

solid


What will stay the same mass or volume?

In most cases, mass will stay the same regardless of changes in volume. Mass is the amount of matter in an object and does not change unless matter is added or removed. Volume, on the other hand, can change as the amount of space an object occupies can increase or decrease.


What happens to the mass of the volume is tripled?

If the volume is tripled, the mass will stay the same as long as the substance remains constant. Mass is an intrinsic property of matter and is not affected by the volume it occupies. The density of the substance will decrease as the volume increases.


Is volume the same as matter?

Volume is a size-cubic feet or cubic meters. This volume is the same whether it contains something or is a perfect vacuum containing nothing. Matter just means the presence of atoms of some substance. So the answer is no, they are not the same.


Matter that a definite volume and a definite shape is?

A Solid because it has the same volume and shape unless you change its state of matter, it wont have the same volume or shape.


If you cut a cube in half will the combined volume of the 2 halves be more less or the same?

The volume will stay the same, because you are not taking any volume away, nor adding any. Therefore the volume will stay the same.


Will density always stay the same no matter what size the object is?

Density of the substance will always stay the same. Density of the object will also stay the same if solid, no matter the size, but not if it is carved out. That is why a steel boat can float


How are solids and liquids different that gases in terms of volume changed?

the volume of them all stay the same


Does you mass always stay the same no matter what?

Yes, no gas is given off, therefore the mass of conversation will stay the same.


Why is mass a more reliable measure of quantity of a sample of matter than weight or volume?

Well, it's a matter (haha, excuse my horrible pun) of the law of conservation of mass. This is one of the laws of nature, and it basically means that unlike volume, mass will stay the same in a close/isolated system. Look it up :)


What happens to the volume of a rectangular prism if height is doubled and length and width stay the same?

its volume is also doubled...


What are the same densities of a small piece and large piece of matter?

Density refers to the mass of a material in a given volume (same volume for all materials)
