Answer to Problem 39A
Milk can change its shape according to the shape of a container.
Explanation of Solution
Three states of matter are solid, liquid, and gas. A liquid is a substance that has a definite volume but does not have a definite shape. In the liquid state, the intermolecular space is less, and the force of attraction is strong but weak as compared to solid. The molecules are can change their position. The liquid tends to flow due to the force of attraction.
Milk has a fixed volume and unfixed shape. So, milk is a liquid state and it can change shape when it is poured into a bowlbut the volume will remain the same.
Milk has a fixed volume and unfixed shape.
