Everyday Examples of Liquids for Kids

📚 Quick Study Guide

• 💧 Definition: Liquids are a state of matter that can flow and take the shape of their container. They have a fixed volume but no fixed shape.
• 🔬 Particles: The particles in a liquid are close together but can move around. This allows liquids to flow.
• 🌡️ Changes of State: Liquids can change into solids (freezing) or gases (boiling) depending on the temperature.
• 📏 Volume: The amount of space a liquid takes up is called its volume. We often measure volume in liters (L) or milliliters (mL).
• 🧪 Viscosity: Viscosity is how thick or thin a liquid is. For example, honey is more viscous than water.
