| Aug 3, 2015 at 15:47 | comment | added | John Gowers | Water is a liquid. Batter is a liquid. Beer is a liquid. Urine is a liquid. Bromine is a liquid. Liquid iron is a liquid. My bath contains 90l of liquid. If I added another 40l of water then there would be more liquid in the bath. If I poured a gallon of batter and a gallon of beer into the bath and had a 'little accident' in the bath then there would be more liquids in the bath. | |
