The volume of a gas is the same as its CONTAINER.
Gases generally has no shape and no definite volume. When a gas is placed in a container, the gas usually takes the shape and the volume of the container, that is, the gas fills up all the available spaces in the container. Thus, the volume of a gas will always be the same as its container. This is in contrast with solids, which have definite shape and volume and liquids, which have definite volume but no fixed shape.
No, the elements are not always transparent.
<u>Explanation:</u>
The elements become transparent when the light passes through those elements. Transparency is caused because of the transmission and the passing of the light waves through these elements.
But the metals do not become transparent even when the light waves pass through these metals. Metals do not become transparent because the refractive index in them is very big.
Explanation: Skeletal muscle, attached to bones, is responsible for skeletal movements. The peripheral portion of the central nervous system (CNS) controls the skeletal muscles. Thus, these muscles are under conscious, or voluntary, control. The basic unit is the muscle fiber with many nuclei. These muscle fibers are striated (having transverse streaks) and each acts independently of neighboring muscle fibers.
