Volume is a physical property of an object.<\/strong><br>\u2705 <strong>4. One unit of volume is the milliliter.<\/strong><br>\u2705 <strong>5. Liquids and solids have constant volume.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Explanation:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Volume<\/strong> is a measure of the amount of space an object or substance occupies. It is one of the <strong>physical properties<\/strong> of matter, along with mass, density, and temperature. A <strong>physical property<\/strong> is a characteristic that can be observed or measured without changing the identity of the substance. Therefore, statement <strong>1 is correct<\/strong>\u2014volume is indeed a physical property.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Statement <strong>2 is incorrect<\/strong> because <strong>volume is not measured using a balance<\/strong>. A balance is used to measure <strong>mass<\/strong>, not volume. Volume is measured with different tools depending on the state of matter. For liquids, graduated cylinders or measuring cups are commonly used. For regularly shaped solids, you can calculate volume using mathematical formulas (e.g., volume of a cube = side\u00b3), and for irregular solids, water displacement methods are often used.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Statement <strong>3 is also incorrect<\/strong> because <strong>the volume of a solid does not change based on the shape of the container<\/strong> it is placed in. Solids have a <strong>definite shape and volume<\/strong>, which means they do not conform to the shape of the container. Liquids, on the other hand, take the shape of their container, but they still have a <strong>constant volume<\/strong>, unless affected by changes in temperature or pressure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Statement <strong>4 is correct<\/strong> because the <strong>milliliter (mL)<\/strong> is a standard unit of volume in the metric system. One milliliter is equivalent to one cubic centimeter (1 mL = 1 cm\u00b3).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, statement <strong>5 is correct<\/strong> because <strong>solids and liquids typically have a constant volume<\/strong>. Unlike gases, which expand to fill their containers, solids and liquids maintain their volume unless acted upon by external forces like heat or pressure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In summary, statements <strong>1, 4, and 5<\/strong> correctly describe the concept of volume.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/learnexams.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/learnexams-banner8-77.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-227515\"\/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Which statements accurately describe volume?
