What matters can flow?
Simply, there are three types of matter (which scientists call states), solid, liquid and gas. Liquids and gasses can flow. Solids do not. The solid state is defined by the fact that solids can not flow.
Do granulated solids flow faster or slower than powdered solids through a funnel?
the granulated solids travel slower than powdered due to granulated have grains and it take time for it to travel through a funnel and it could get clumped up at the bottom of the funnel .As powdered it passes through not clumps
What can liquid and gas do that solid cannot?
Liquid and gas can flow and change shape to fit their containers, while solids have a fixed shape and volume. Liquids and gases can also be easily compressed or expanded, which is difficult for solids to do.
Why solids are not called fluids?
Solids are not called fluids because solids have a fixed shape and volume, while fluids can change shape and flow to fill the container they are in. Solids have particles that are tightly packed together and vibrate in place, whereas fluids have particles that are able to move past each other.
Which property do liquid and gases have that solids don't?
The ability to flow and take the shape of their container is a property of liquids and gases that solids do not have. This property is known as fluidity.
Why do streams deposit sediments?
It's the flow of water that carries solids, whenever the flow slows then some of the solids will fall to the bottom of the stream.
why don't solids flow?
Solids don't flow, because they have a tight bond with the partiles
Why solids do not flow?
Solids do not flow because there is very little intermolecular space between them and hence they hold each other very tightly so they cannot flow
Does solid flow?
in some cases yes e.g sugar is a solid but moves like a liquid so yes solids can flow
Why can't solids flow?
the atoms and molecules are packed so close together there is no room for them to pass through each other
Can a solid flow?
yes indeed solids can flow as well. all states of matter are fluids.
Why do solids flow?
Solids do not flow because there is very little intermolecular space between them and hence they hold each other very tightly so they cannot flow
Substances that do not flow when poured?
solids i guess
Do solids like ice flow?
Any material can flow under stress.
Which state cannot flow from place to place?
solids
How do you determine a substance which is a solid?
Solids have a strict shape and volume. Solids do not flow and they are usually cannot be easily compressed.
How does heat flow in solids and fluids?
Either by conduction or convection?
