Question
like solids, liquids have a ____?____ volume. fixed variable unlimited rewatch submit
Solids have a fixed volume because their particles are closely packed and have a definite shape. Liquids also have a fixed volume as their particles are close together (though not as rigidly as solids) and they take the shape of their container but the amount of space they occupy (volume) remains constant unless conditions like temperature change significantly (but under normal circumstances, the volume is fixed compared to gases which have variable volume as they can expand or contract to fill a container).
