Rubber and glass, which become softer as they are heated, are examples of crystalline solids. When you see steam, fog, or clouds, you are seeing water in the liquid state. The volume of a gas is the force of its outward push divided by the area of the walls of the container. A gas has a definite volume but no definite shape. A fluid has a definite shape and volume.
Understand the Problem
The question is asking to determine whether certain statements about materials and their properties are true or false and to correct them if they are false. This requires knowledge of the properties of crystalline solids, liquids, gases, and fluids.
Answer
1. False: amorphous. 2. False: gaseous state. 3. False: pressure. 4. False: no definite volume. 5. False: no definite shape.
- False: Rubber and glass are examples of amorphous solids. 2. False: Steam, fog, or clouds are water in a gaseous state. 3. False: The described volume condition relates to pressure. 4. False: Gas has no definite volume nor shape. 5. False: A fluid has no definite shape but definite volume.

More Information
Rubber and glass are amorphous solids, becoming softer because they lack a definite structure. Steam and clouds are water vapor, a gas. Gas does not have a definite volume or shape. Fluids have no definite shape but do have a definite volume.
Tips
Amorphous solids like rubber and glass don’t have a regular pattern unlike crystalline solids. Gas is unique for having neither definite volume nor shape, contrasting with liquids.
