What is the volume of a liquid
this answer made me want to die...thanks!
Definite shape and volume is a state that defines solid.
Yes, a solid does not occupy less sapce when it is pressed or squeezed. It cannot be compressed. The volume of a solid does not change. A solid has a fixed or definite volume.
The volume of a solid depends on the temperature.
You place it in water to see the volume of water it displaces. Fill a large, graduated measuring cylinder to about halfway with water (say to 50mL) Put the irregular solid in, and measure the volume it reads (solid + water). (say it reads 80mL) So the volume of the irregular solid will be: volume(solid+water) - volume(water). For example, the volume of the water was 50mL, and when the solid was added, the volume increased to 80mL. The volume of the solid would be 80mL - 50mL. So it would be 30mL.
Yes you can.You can measure the solid by putting it into a gradruated cylinder.The height of the water shows you how much volume the solid has. fun is at www.qyue.webs.com
The volume of an irregularly shaped solid can be measured by placing the solid in a known quantity of water in a container with measurement markings. Take the new volume and find the difference between this and the old volume. This is the volume of your irregularly shaped solid.
A solid is matter that has a definite volume and shape that remains constant. The particles in a solid are tightly packed and vibrate in place, giving the solid its fixed shape and volume.
The volume of the solid remains the same.
A solid is characterized by having a definite shape and a definite volume. In a solid, the particles are tightly packed and have minimal energy, which allows them to maintain their shape and volume.
A solid has a definite shape, and a definite volume.

To determine the volume of a solid, you would need to know the appropriate formula based on the shape. Common formulas include volume = length × width × height for a rectangular solid, volume = πr^2h for a cylinder, and volume = (4/3)πr^3 for a sphere. The shape of the solid would determine which formula to use for calculating its volume.
