Liquids

Key Points of Liquids

• Fixed Volume, No Fixed Shape: Liquids have a fixed volume, meaning they take up a specific amount of space. But they don't have a fixed shape. They take the shape of their container, Think of water in a glass - It takes the shape of the glass, but it always has the same volume.
• Weaker Bonds: The atoms and molecules in a liquid are held together by weaker forces than in a solid. This allows the particles to slide past each other, giving liquids their fluidity.
• Medium Density: Liquids have a medium density, but not as high as solids not as low as gases.
• Moderate Ability To Compress: Liquids are slightly compressible, meaning you can squeeze them a little bit, but not as much as gas. They will simply fall apart or separate.
