Which state has volume but no shape?
Gases
Solids have a definite shape and volume. Liquids have a definite volume, but take the shape of the container. Gases have no definite shape or volume.
Which state of matter always has shape and volume?
Solid
Solid is the state in which matter maintains a fixed volume and shape; liquid is the state in which matter adapts to the shape of its container but varies only slightly in volume; and gas is the state in which matter expands to occupy the volume and shape of its container.
What physical states have a consistent volume?
Explanation: Solid is the only state of matter that has a definite shape and definite volume.
Which state of matter Cannot be compressed?
Solids: have a fixed shape and cannot flow, because their particles cannot move from place to place. cannot be compressed (squashed), because their particles are close together and have no space to move into.
Has definite volume and can flow?
A solid has definite volume and shape, a liquid has a definite volume but no definite shape, and a gas has neither a definite volume nor shape. The change from solid to liquid usually does not significantly change the volume of a substance.
What is the hardest state of matter?
solid
As the temperature continues to drop, the matter forms a solid. Due to the solid’s low kinetic energy, particles have no “time” to move around, the particles have more “time” to be attracted. Therefore, solids have the strongest intramolecular forces (because they have the strongest attraction).
Does the volume of a gas change?
The pressure of a given amount of gas is directly proportional to its absolute temperature, provided that the volume does not change (Amontons’s law). The volume of a given gas sample is directly proportional to its absolute temperature at constant pressure (Charles’s law).
Which state holds its own shape?
A solid is something that can hold its own shape and is hard to squash. The particles in most solids are closely packed together and do not move around. Ice is water in its solid form or state.
What material Cannot be compressed?
Sorting Materials into Groups Those materials which cannot be easily compressed, cut, molded or scratched are called hard materials. Examples are steel, iron, etc.
What flows easily but is difficult to compress?
Because the particles can move, liquids don’t have a definite shape, and they can flow. Because the particles are still packed close together, liquids can’t easily be compressed and keep the same volume.
What are the 22 states of matter?
Bose–Einstein condensate.
What is the strongest state of matter?
The solid are held by strongest forces of attraction between them. This makes their inter molecular bond be strong thus making them the strongest state of matter.
