Gases, Liquids and solids are sometimes contrasted by the fact that liquids and gasses will take on the shape of the container that they are placed in while solids do not.
A gas fills up the container it is placed in because gases do not have a fixed shape or volume. They expand to fill the available space of the container.
A gas does not change shape when placed in different containers because its particles are free to move and spread out to fill the available space, regardless of the container's shape or size. This property is known as compressibility, where gases can be compressed or expanded to fit the volume of their container.
Gas particles are able to move freely within a container but are typically close to one another due to their high energy and rapid movement. This behavior allows gases to fill the entire volume of a container they are placed in.
Both liquids and gases do not have a definite shape, however they will assume the form of the container they are placed in.
its pressure will increase if it is placed in a fixed container, or it will expand if it is free to do so
A solid molecule, due to its fixed shape and volume, will not take the shape of its container. Liquids and gases, on the other hand, will conform to the shape of the container they are placed in.
Gases can NOT change shape because gases don't have a 'shape', it's the container in which they are held that has a shape)
Gases have the property of indefinite shape and volume, as they expand to fill any container. They also have low density compared to liquids and solids. Gases can be compressed and expand easily when heated.
Of course. The gas always fills the container it's in, no matter how large or small the volume is.
A gas is a substance made up of neutral atoms or molecules that changes its shape and volume when placed in a new container. Gases have particles that are widely dispersed and move freely, allowing them to fill the space available to them.
Yes it can See a gas it needs to change its shape in order to fit into a container or anything that it can be in for instance....If i had a square container and a cirlce container the gas is going to have to change its shape to fit in to the round container...if the gas starts out in the square container it has to change its shape into a circle to be able to be in the circle container
