Question

Which states of matter can change their shape?

  1. Liquid 
  2. Solid 
  3. Gas 
  4. Plasma 

hintHint:

Liquids take up the shape of the container in which it is kept.

The correct answer is: Liquid 


    • Shape and size depend on intermolecular forces of attraction.
    • In liquids intermolecular forces of attraction are intermediate and liquids take up the shape of the container in which it is kept.
    • In solids intermolecular forces of attraction are high and they have a rigid shape.
    • In gases intermolecular forces of attraction are negligible they do not have any shape.
