💧 Liquid State, 1. Characteristics of Liquids, - In liquids, particles are less tightly packed than in solids., - The particles remain close to one another but can move past one another., - Interparticle attractions are weaker than in solids., - Liquids have a definite volume but no definite shape., - They take the shape of the container in which they are kept., 2. Why Do Liquids Flow and Take the Shape of Containers?, - Liquid particles are not fixed in position., - They can slide past one another, allowing liquids to flow., - When water is poured from a glass into a bowl, it takes the shape of the bowl., - The volume of water remains the same, provided none is spilled., - When a finger moves through water, the particles move aside and occupy the available space again., 3. Heating Liquids 🔥, - When a liquid is heated, its particles gain energy., - The particles move faster., - On reaching the boiling point, the liquid boils and changes into vapour., - During boiling, bubbles form throughout the liquid and rise to the surface.
