Because the particles cannot move around, a solid has a fixed shape. Liquids do not have a fixed shape but they do have a fixed volume. The particles are very close together. Most of the particles touch each other.
Q. How many different state of matter are there?
Four states of matter are observable in everyday life: solid, liquid, gas, and plasma.

Liquids. In a liquid, the particles are still in close contact, so liquids have a definite volume. However, because the particles can move about each other rather freely, a liquid has no definite shape and takes a shape dictated by its container.
Q. Do liquids have a fixed shape?
Q. How can we show that liquid do not have fixed shape?
take about 100ml of water and put it in glass same amount of water in another glass having different shape the water will take different shape i.e.,the shape of glass. This correctly state that a liquid have no fixed shape but have fixed volume. Aakash EduTech Pvt.
Q. Do liquids have a fixed temperature?
There is a CHEMICAL difference between the gaseous and liquid state of the same substance. 3. Volume Liquids have a fixed TEMPERATURE, but no fixed shape.
Q. Why does a gas not have a fixed shape and volume?
Gases do not have a definite shape or volume because the molecules in gases are very loosely packed, they have large intermolecular spaces and hence they move around. The force of attraction between molecules is also very less, as a result gases acquire any shape or any volume.
Q. Why do liquids flow?
Liquids flow because the intermolecular forces between molecules are weak enough to allow the molecules to move around relative to one another. In liquids, the intermolecular forces can shift between molecules and allow them to move past one another and flow.
Q. What are the six properties of liquids?
Properties of Liquids
- Capillary Action.
- Cohesive and Adhesive Forces.
- Contact Angles.
- Surface Tension.
- Unusual Properties of Water.
- Vapor Pressure.
- Viscosity Viscosity is another type of bulk property defined as a liquid’s resistance to flow.
- Wetting Agents.
Q. Why do liquid flow in short?
The forces between liquid particles are weaker than the forces between solid particles. This means that liquid particles are further apart and can move about more easily. Since the particles can move, the liquid can flow and take the shape of its container.
Q. Which liquid flows freely to ground?
The viscosity of a liquid is a measure of its resistance to flow. Water, gasoline, and other liquids that flow freely have a low viscosity. Honey, syrup, motor oil, and other liquids that do not flow freely, like those shown in Figure 1, have higher viscosities.
