can u discribe some properties of solids and liquids please
Answers
Solids:
Keep their shape unless they are broken
Do not flow like a liquid, or expand to fill the entire volume available like a gas
Cannot be compressed (keep the same volume)
Liquids
Do not keep their shape
They flow
Cannot be compressed (keeps the same volume)
Often expand when heated and contract when cooled
Two liquids mix together and diffuse into each other to make a new type of liquid
Can turn into a gas or a solid, depending upon the forces exerted on it.
Heated high enough, they will vaporize and turn into a gas, and cooled enough will solidify.
