definition of liquid

Being one of the most important components of planet earth, liquid is also one of the three phases in which matter can be found in addition to the gaseous state and the solid state. The liquid is always a fluid that can vary its shape depending on whether it is contained or not, in addition to taking the shape of the container container always (unlike the other two states). The molecules in the liquid state are therefore looser and freer than in the gaseous and solid states (medium and mostly compact respectively).

The transformations of the elements in a liquid state can make that when they reach their boiling point, that liquid matter turns into gas, while if it reaches the frozen state, it reaches the solid state. For each type of liquid, these freezing or boiling points will be different and this is a basic principle used in different areas, for example gastronomy. On the surface of any liquid, a force or tension is generated which is what causes bubbles to form and explode there.

The volumes of a type of liquid vary according to the result of its particular temperature and pressure. This not only changes according to the type of liquid but also to the specific state of the liquid and environmental conditions. However, under those specific conditions, the volume of the liquid becomes constant. Volume is also the unit of measurement for all liquids.

Thanks to the fact that liquids have more widely spaced and free molecules than the other two states, fluid and viscosity conditions occur in liquid elements, both of which are related to the possibility of movement and permanent collision. This movement is always messy and becomes even more chaotic when the temperature of the liquid rises.
