The shape of the container
A property of a gas is that it expands to fill the shape and volume of a container. An exception may be the case where there is more than one gas and the heavier gasses will tend to settle to the bottom of the container.

What determines that shape and volume of a gas inside a container?

The shape of a gas inside a container is determined by the shape of the container itself, while the volume is determined by the pressure, temperature, and amount of gas present. The ideal gas law, PV = nRT, describes the relationship between these factors.

What determines the shape a volume of a gas inside a container?

The shape of the gas is determined by the shape of the container (assuming that there is enough gas to fill the container). The volume of the gas is determined by the volume of the container (again assuming that there is enough gas present to fill the container.). When a gas is introduced into any container, it will assume the size and shape of the container if the container is filled. The exception to this rule might be if the pressure of the gas introduced is great enough to influence the shape of the container (i.e. blowing up a balloon).


What determines the shape and volume of a gas in a continer?

The shape of a gas in a container is determined by the shape of the container itself. The volume of a gas in a container is determined by factors such as temperature, pressure, and the amount of gas present. These factors affect the motion of gas particles, which in turn influences the volume the gas occupies.

What form of matter has no definite shape but has a definite volume?

The state of matter that has definite volume, but indefinite shape is the liquid state. A solid constantly has the same shape and volume. A wooden block (solid) will not change its shape or volume unless it is melted, but that would involve changing it from solid to liquid. A liquid constantly has the same volume, but its shape changes. Find a cylindrical container that has the same volume as a rectangular container. Fill the cylindrical container with water. Then, pour the water to the rectangular container. The shape of the water changed from cylindrical to rectangular and the volume remained the same, unless some water was dropped in the process. A gas has changing shape and volume. Find a small container full of a colored gas. Open in it inside a room. The gas will spread all over the room. Its volume changed from the volume of the container to the size of the room. Its shape has changed from the shape of the container to the shape of the room.


What shape does gas take?

Gas will take the shape of whatever container it is in. One of the characteristics of a gas is that it has no definite shape or volume.
