Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

Which state of matter can be described as having both definite volume and shape?
  • Step 1: Understand the states of matter. There are four main states: solid, liquid, gas, and plasma.
  • Step 2: Learn about solids. Solids have particles that are tightly packed together.
  • Step 3: Know that because the particles in solids are tightly packed, they keep their shape and do not change easily.
  • Step 4: Realize that solids have a definite volume, meaning they take up a specific amount of space.
  • Step 5: Conclude that the state of matter with both a definite volume and shape is solids.
