What is the difference?
- 1State of matter: Flowable refers to the ability to flow, while liquid is a state of matter.
- 2Consistency: Flowable implies a certain level of viscosity or thickness, while liquid can range from thin to thick.
- 3Composition: Liquid can be a pure substance or a mixture, while flowable typically refers to a product or material with a specific purpose.
- 4Usage: Flowable is often used in technical or industrial contexts, while liquid is more commonly used in everyday language.
- 5Application: Flowable is often used for filling gaps or molds, while liquid can have a wide range of applications, such as drinking, cooking, cleaning, or lubricating.
Remember this!
Flowable and liquid both refer to substances that can flow and take the shape of their container. However, flowable emphasizes the ability to flow smoothly and easily, often with a specific purpose in mind, such as filling gaps or molds. On the other hand, liquid is a state of matter that can range from thin to thick and can be used in various applications, such as drinking, cooking, cleaning, or lubricating.
