1.what is the metric system? why might scientists prefer using metric units rather than feet or inches? 2.how can you measure the volume of a solid that does not have a regular shape? what property must the solid not have for your method to work? 3.water freezes at 32 degrees and boils at 212 degrees on the fahrenheit temperature scale. compare the size of a degree of the fahrenheit scale to the size of a degree on the celsius scale.

Hey there!

1.The metric system is a decimal system of measurement whose units are based on certain physical standards and are scaled on multiples of 10.Metric units of length are easy to use because they are based on multiples of 10.

2.You can immerse the solid in water and measure the volume of the water displaced. The solid cannot dissolve in water.

3.A degree on the Fahrenheit scale must be smaller because there are 180 degrees between freezing and boiling as compared to 100 degrees for the same range on the Celsius scale.

Hope this helped @ShaggySnaps
