Do liquids have greatest spaces between particles so they can be compressed?
No, gasses do.
How do gasses liquid and soilds differ in respect of the spaces between particles?
Liquids have smaller spaces between the molecules than a gas, and Solids have smaller spaces than liquids.
Which states of matter are virtually incompressible to smaller volume?
You can force gas into a smaller volume, and it will expand to fill any container you put it in.
What gases can be crammed into small spaces with ease?
All of them, with caveat that some gases will auto ignite if compressed too much. (The biggest malefactor here is acetylene; if it's compressed to over 15 psi, it becomes highly unstable.)
You can compress a gas because its particles are?
Apart from each other, the intermolecular spaces are very large in gases.
Can a gas be compressed?
Gases can be compressed,this is because they have small particles and can fit into smaller spaces, for example:they can be squeezed into aerol cans
Do liquids have greatest spaces between particles so they can be compressed?
No, gasses do.
Are solids compressiple?
Solids are tightly packed and arranged structures, and they cannot be compressed because they have no further region to squeeze to. Liquids on the other hand do have spaces between their molecules, and hence are more able to be compressed than a solid, but are still fairly hard to compress..
Can all gases be compressed?
Yes, all gasses can be compressed. The very property of being a gas means that there are spaces between the individual atoms/molecules.
How do gasses liquid and soilds differ in respect of the spaces between particles?
Liquids have smaller spaces between the molecules than a gas, and Solids have smaller spaces than liquids.
What is root syndrome injury associated with whiplash?
Root syndrome occurs when the foramen (the spaces between vertebrae) become compressed, the nerve roots can be compressed or damaged.

Why is an American crocodile endangered?
Because, as usual, the human race is encroaching on its natural habitat - squeezing the population into smaller and smaller spaces !
Why can gas be easily squashed?
A gas consists of particles having a rather loose molecular structure; the easiest way of saying it is that there's a lot of "empty space" between the molecules. When a gas is compressed (by pressure, or being led into a smaller chamber) these empty spaces are eliminated as the particles get closer to each other.
