5.

Which of these is true of liquid matter?

a)

Liquid matter expands to fill any space.

b)

Liquid matter cannot flow or change shape.

c)

Liquid matter has a definite volume and takes the shape of its container.

d)

Liquid matter has a definite shape and volume.

6.

Which form of matter does not take the shape of its container?

a)

Solid

b)

liquid

c)

gas

7.

Why can a macroscopic amount of liquid change shape in a container?

a)

A macroscopic amount of liquid can change shape because its molecules can move , allowing it to conform to the shape of its container.
