Question

matter 1. What do you think it means for a solid to have a definite shape? (hint: a gas/liquid does not have a definite shape). _________________________________________________________________________________________ 2. How can solids be transformed into other states of matter? Give an example. _______________________________________________________________________________

Answer 1

Answer:

1.) Particles in a solid have fixed locations in a volume that does not change. • Solids have a definite volume and shape because particles in a solid vibrate around fixed locations.

2.) It's a process called sublimation. The easiest example of sublimation might be dry ice. Dry ice is solid carbon dioxide. When you leave dry ice out in a room, it just turns into a gas.

Answer 2
