Solid Blocks and Runny Water

A solid, like a wooden block, keeps the same shape in any container. A liquid, like water, flows and takes the shape of whatever holds it.

Examples

  • An ice cube stays a cube in a bowl, but melted water spreads out flat.
  • Milk poured from a carton takes the shape of the cup.
