Liquid Capabilites
and Unstable Shapes

Fluids

Liquids are one of the first "Fluids" Something that fills the space it is in. This is also true for gases and plasmas. Not only are solids important but solids can't move by themselves so when we use fluids motion is much easier. This causes all kinds of possibilities that liquids offer. Each and every phase is important for life to exist.

The Absence of Liquids

Liquids are a strange phase because in everyday life they are very present however some elements don't have any liquid phase at the Earth's atmosphere and temperature. This is because they will either subliminate from a solid to a gas or go through deposition from gas to solid. An example of this is CO2 which exemplifies these properties.
