2. Differentiate the shapes of solid, liquid and gases, and gives reasons for such differences.
Answers
Answer:
Difference -
Explanation:
Solids have a definite shape. The solid has its own shape due to the molecules being tightly packed due to force of attraction.
Liquid does not have a definite shape. Liquids take the shape of the container as the molecules are loosely packed.
Gases do not have definite shape nor definite volume. It takes shape of the container.
If its helpful give a thank you or follow me.
Incase of solids
solids have the definite shape and fixed volume
because In case of solids the force of attraction is very strong hence they cannot change the shape until some strong external force applied.
Incase of liquids
liquids have the definite shape but not fixed volume they can take the shape of the container in which they are placed
Incase of gases
Gases have neither fixed shape nor fix volume
.They can easily take the shape of contact in which they contain. for eg in our l.P.G cylinder the gas is fillied in a very big amount by applying pressure . This shows that gases have neither fixed shape nor fixed volume
