C Gas
d mixture
Answers
Answer :
b) Liquid
Explanation :
Liquid is a state of matter that has definite volume but no definite shape . This means that it will take the shape of whatever container you fit it in however its quantity would still be the same .
For example : 1 litre water would remain 1 litre , be it in a bottle or jug . However , it shape would be according to what it is in .
Solid have both definite shape as well definite volume . Their shape remains unchanged and doesn't depend on the container in which they are fitted .
Gases have both indefinite shape and volume . They not only lose their shape according to container but also their volume .
One reason behind these behaviour of states of matter is the distance between the molecules in them .
In solid they are tightly packed , in liquid loosely packed and in gases , they are so far that they are in random motion .
