Liquids

Liquids are a state of matter characterized by having a definite volume but no fixed shape. They conform to the shape of their container while maintaining a consistent volume. The particles in a liquid are close together but can move past each other, which allows liquids to flow. This fluidity distinguishes liquids from solids, which have a fixed shape, and gases, which expand to fill their containers. Liquids are common in everyday life, such as water, milk, and oil, and their unique properties make them practical for transportation, cooking, and various industrial processes.
