All liquids contract when cooled. With such a big difference in temperature it contracted to 117 liters. The colder a fluid the more compact the molecules are. They don't move around as much so the fluid contracts.

What is the definitions of liquid volume?

The liquid volume of an object is the amount of liquid (like water or oil) that the object (like a glass) can hold when completely filled.


What is the volume by displacement?

Volume by displacement is a method used to measure the volume of irregularly shaped objects by submerging them in a liquid-filled container and measuring the amount of liquid displaced. The volume of the object is equal to the volume of liquid displaced, as per Archimedes' principle.


When a liquid is cooled the molecules in that liquid?

I assume you mean what happens to the molecules... They slow down due to the loss of kinetic energy when the liquid is cooled. When they are sufficiently cooled as to cause freezing, that's a different story.


What happens to a liquid mass and volume when it is heated or cooled?

Really? Do you not pay attention the slightest bit. This is common sense here. Well, mass of an object never changes. If heated, it would evaporate. If cooled, it would freeze. The volume also stays the same, cause you're not adding or taking any away.


What happens when a liquidis cooled to its freezing point?

When a liquid is cooled to its freezing point, it changes state from a liquid to a solid. The molecules within the liquid slow down and lose energy, causing them to form a more organized structure with a fixed shape and volume. This process is known as solidification.


Is a cup filled with water is that a solid?

No, a cup filled with water is not a solid. The water inside the cup is in liquid form. A solid has a fixed shape and volume, whereas a liquid like water takes the shape of its container.


How does a volume gas thermometer owrk?

Gases expand or contract when heated or cooled. The main part of the thermometer has a 'large' bulb containing a gas connected by a hose to a tube filled with liquid. The expansion or contraction of the gas causes the liquid level to move this indicates the temperature.


How do you calculate density of cyclohexen?

cyclohexane is a liquid so it may be filled in a flask of known volume and may be weighted out ... the ratio of mass and volume represents the density....


Does the volume get larger when a solid is cooled?

no it expands with heat, it shrinks when cooled


What happens when air molcules are cooled?

When air molecules are cooled, they lose kinetic energy and move more slowly, which causes them to come closer together. As they come closer together, the air density increases, leading to a decrease in volume. Eventually, if cooled sufficiently, the air molecules may condense into a liquid or solid form depending on the temperature and pressure.


What is expansion of liquid?
